My '69 K5 project

I have had this project since 2006. I did a bunch of work to it early on, and then lost interest in it when my then new shop got busy. I tried to sell it a couple times half ass, but as you can see I still have it.

Truck was in pretty decent shape as Blazers go, I have seen a lot worse. Had to replace both rockers, few specific Blazer only patch panels from GMC Paul when he first released them, front quarter patches due to bad "B" pillars. I also did the first round of bodywork and primed everything. That basically brings the body up to today.



Rear floor has a big sway in it, so it was replaced along with new wheel tubs.



I wanted a cleaner appearance so I installed a gas door from a 96 chevy pickup



old tailgate was beat to death so a new one was fitted. I had another original for this truck but was put on another project in the shop.



Last but not least for this post is a 6.0 was purchased to replaced the 350 and sent to my buddy to have it rebuilt.
