My blazer

Good Morning all,
Finally got out today and got some pictures of my 72. She a K5 in good shape but stills needs some work. I plan on doing a restomod project with her. I plan on getting the classic lines of the body intack and only playing the mechanics. This will be my first build, but planning on doing a full frame off, rebuilding the 350 and trans. Going to leave the interior simple.

I'm buying in from an auto pawn/dealer in the area. Not a bad deal, 10% down, 6 months to pay with only 1% interest and the truck stays on the their lot until paided for. I got her for the window price of $4395. Feel like I got her for a good price. Have the top (not sure if it is a double or single, forgot to get pictures of the top today), it missing a side window and the rear hatch window. No back seat. Going to have a lot of questions, so thanks a thousands times in advance for any help.

Re: My blazer

Nice looking rig. Those front seats look a little high, but it is a great, solid starting point.

Re: My blazer

Thanks for the nice comments.
Yes, cannot wait to drive it and finish it (well they never do get finished, they just contuine to evole)
Been wanting a 1st gen blazer since i was a teenage, still can't believe that I have one now and that I was lucky to find one is this good of shape.
Glad I found this site, seems like a lot of knowledge and good people here.
yea, I digging the roll bar, it looks like it was made for a truck, there are three mounts on it for lights.
Can't wait to get to play in the desert and just cruise around, just wish I could talk to the PO and find out excatly what was been done to it.

Trust me, once you get it and start tearing into things you'll know exactly what was done and more importantly what wasn't.
