Oh, how sweet it is!

Nice that you get a longer 'blazer season' than we do up here, I'm already planning for winter hibernation.

Fantastic work, restored nothin', it's NEW!

BigRand 08-15-2005 08:04 AM

Very Nice.

Just a suggestion, you might want to pull that front bumper before you attempt to put the new grill on. Will make installation a whole lot easier. Looks fantastic!!!

Planned on it, just checking the fit and wanted to see how it looked.

That IS beutiful! Now you need to start looking for one for her. Thats how I got started building these trucks. First I built a shortbed for my daughter; and then I got a two wheel drive for my son. The wife is a whole lot more understanding about procurments when its for the kids... you know ;.)

great looking ride (in orange)
 
Hey Orangeuavol,
Great looking ride. I'm impressed. I didn't think I would ever say it, but that Blazer looks good in Orange. You know you're getting props when you hear that from a Dawg.

You might find some intereset in my site: http://www.clayharrison.com/truck/

You'll be espeically interested in the "GaRed Paint" and "Everything Else" sections of the site.

Best of luck finishing up that K5... see you on 10/8.

Cheers, clay
Go Dawgs! Sic 'Em...

MikeS 08-15-2005 03:51 PM

You mean you ain't done yet!? What's taking you so long! :lol:

Oh yeah...Looks great! :metal:

LUV2XCLR8 08-15-2005 05:15 PM

Simply Wicked, someday I hope mine looks half as nice as that :metal:

Sweet blazer! That's one serious tailgatin' rig you got. GaRed looks much better than Crimson any day:) You're gonna have to start posting more pics on this board! Keep us posted.
