Here is my blazer I got
 
5 Attachment(s)
Got it from Tom (tll74) out in Oregon. Not exactly what I was wanting (was wanting AT and AC) but it is a cheyenne. Its going to body shop this winter, needs doors, a little front fender work, and little floor pan work and few small dings fixed. I haven't had time to do anything with it since I got it. Have only drove it in and out of garage. Its going back to original color, going to make it a super.
I have a tach with new bezel, 72 tow hooks, factory AM-FM with new antenna, new inner and outer grills, better rear panels, another console, NOS outer sport mirrors, NOS woodgrain door inserts, new front and rear bumpers.
I still have to get new seat covers, new carpet, tilt, new dash pad and new woodgrain chrome
I'm taking the engine compartment back to original, just need to find a carb basically
I hope to find time to get it done by spring if I'm lucky.

Thanks Randy

Looks very solid to me. Congratulations.

If you need any parts, there is a guy in Kansas who loves to part out these old trucks.:lol:

Looks very solid Randy. What is up with the mess by the brake booster? It looks like a playdoh spaghetti maker went wonkers. :D

Nice solid Blazer - you will enjoy driving the stick. Just dial in the drive trian - motor and gears. I set my Blazer up for a little more of a daily driver - COMP Cam / Wieand Intake / original Q-JET with slight mod / World 76cc heads and 2.5 Corvette exhaust manifilds with a true dual BORLA exhaust. Running 3.73 gears. Man -It is fun to drive! If you need any pictures of my rebuild, LMK and I'll send them to ya.

THANKS GUYS!!!!!!! It was in pieces before I bought it, Tom put it back together for shipping purposes. I've got a bid from a body shop to do body work and paint for $6K. I just bought some seat covers for it, now I have to find some of the other stuff I need. Talking to a guy about doing some work to the motor. Can't wait to have the top off, the other blazer I had never had the top on it in the summer. I kind of miss the swb 4x4, I know they are getting harder to find, especially since it was so original. Thanks again, Randy
