I guess it is time to start my own project thread. My current project is a 71 2wd Blazer named Anna. I bought her off of here about 5 years ago with a plan to have her finished in 2 years. Well that obviously that didn't happen. While working on her the engine in my daily driver blew up resulting in an unplanned project that took almost a year:
After completing that project I decided it I need somewhere to work on Anna so the search for a house began. I also got married in there somewhere. Now that all of that is out of the way it is time to get back to Anna, only problem is I spent all of my money. The original plan was for her to be bagged with a twin turbo 5.3, th400 and to look basically stock from the exterior and interior. Since my financial situation has changed she will now just have a cammed 5.3/4l80e, airbags and a few other minor upgrades.
This is the day she was delivered:
A little rust:
Passenger side looked good though:
The first project was to get the front frame rails cleaned up. Working outdoors wasn't a bit fun:
Then I picked up an engine, a 01 5.3 with 20k miles:
got the engine installed:
