New from Austin, TX
 

hey guys,

just picked up a 1972 blazer this weekend. it's a great starting point, but will take some tinkering to get where i want it. i'll post pics once i get it cleaned up and ready for the forums :)

i'd like to thank you all in advance for all the help with the stupid ass questions i know i'm going to have!

Welcome from a fellow blazer owner.

My brother lives in Leander. That's a nice area down there.

leander is a short drive from my house. in fact, the guy that i work on my cars with (more accurately...that's teaching me how to work on cars) is up that way.

i just looked through your build post of that 2wd blazer and it made me sick to my stomach...i must have jealousy issues...

you've pretty much made my dream vehicle. i dont have the skills or the money!!

thanks, chopit. i took your advice and posted as i bought it. i do already love it, but honestly, i'd like to bring it down to stock height and make it a "daily"

Haha thanks man. Your blazer looks to be in great shape!

Keep your eyes peeled for this monte. It's my brother's high school car that I LS swapped for him a few years back. I think he still has the Wisconsin tags on it. Runs pretty good. He lives about 5 mins from the HEB in Leander.

man, that car is awesome! i'll definitely be on the look out for it.

i'm a fan of the "LS swap". this is my 63 galaxie...has an LM7 in it with a 4l60e. it's been my work in progress for several years now.
