Finally Done!!
Well pretty much, I guess. There will always be things to fix and add on but here she is. I want to thank everyone on this website that helped me with ideas and information on how to make things work. I couldn't have done it without your all's help and this website. Weather permitting, this will be one great 4th of July.
Thanks Again! |

Re: Finally Done!!
Looks Great!!! But it isn't done. You still need a gas pedal!

Re: Finally Done!!
That's a beauty. I like the color and the wheel/tire combo. What steering wheel is that?

Re: Finally Done!!
The steering wheel is a Grant from Jegs. I had to order a new gas pedal since the old was all rotted out where the nubs on the floor stick in. Like I said, they never really are complete, but hey I don't know what I would do if there wasn't something to to tinker with.

I like the dual snorkel air clearer. What's it off. The blazer looks great. I like the color.

Re: Finally Done!!
Nice work! That is a beauty, one question tho. How do you like the mirrors, do they bounce and vibrate while driving? That seems to be the only style I like, but they have to be functional. Really like the choice of color...More pics, pls.

Re: Finally Done!!
Thanks for the compliments. I know the tranny is a 700. I don't know about the transfer case. I attached a pic in case any one can tell me based on that. The last pic with my son is what really motivated me to get this put together. He and my daughter love ridin with the top off.
