Interior is about to be done in black leather and red and black houndstooth inserts in the seats. They are going to make some panels for the back also and on for the tailgate. I still have to lower it about three more inches front and back too. You got to love old school blazers.

Is the top smoothed? I like it!

jkade · 01-29-2006, 08:11 PM

Yeah it's smooth, but I think I may go with a half cab and bed cover in the future.

Nice.

Did you buy it that way needing to be finished?

Or is this the end result of your restoration efforts?

Either way, sweet ride.

jkade · 01-29-2006, 08:16 PM

I bought it off a guy in atlanta who had it on ebay. He had just a plain jane interior, no back seat, buckets out of a 454ss truck,etc. It had a set of 454ss wheels on it also. I am in the process of trying to get it the way I would rather it look. Thanks, Kade

RANDY COX · 01-29-2006, 08:54 PM

Can't tell with all that RED,j/k looks great.

Definitely, the 68 front clip looks really good on there.

jkade · 01-29-2006, 10:52 PM

Yeah there is too much red on it, I am going to 2 tone it black with the weather gets better. I also need to get some chrome bumpers.
Thanks Folks

Black lower moulding might work pretty good to break thing's up.

Southedisto · 01-30-2006, 09:23 AM

red or not, it looks good.

bagged74 · 01-30-2006, 09:49 AM

I love it

71RestoRod · 01-30-2006, 12:03 PM

Wow... Looks great. I really dig the '68 front clip on the Blazers too... Can't wait to see the new interior!

Welcome & congrats on your purchase.

**Yukon Jack** · 01-30-2006, 12:42 PM

Looks like a great foundation to work from - have fun getting it more to your liking. Oh, welcome too!

kyle4381 · 01-30-2006, 02:11 PM

looking good...

Pop's72 · 01-30-2006, 03:31 PM

I agree with the others... your Blazer looks sweet and will be even sweeter when it's finished. Keep us posted...

jkade · 01-30-2006, 07:52 PM

I appreciate the comments guys and I will post some more pics along the way. I will probably need some help with questions when I get the ls1 and
4l80E for it. I guess I will part with the 402BB and turbo 400(hint). Were is the cheapest place to buy drop spindles and drop springs?
Thanks, Kade

bagged74 · 01-30-2006, 08:31 PM

i have these for sale that would drop the front 3"
