Sat for 20 years in a field - Original '70 Blazer

[j_cst_10]

Thanks guys. I put the fuel tank in yesterday and all the various rubber line, fuel filler hose (that stuff is expensive). Had to do some bending and cutting to get it in.

I had a new tank that came with a parts truck years ago (almost threw it out after sitting around for 16 years) and it was for a blazer or so I thought. The fuel filler neck wasn't right and shot out right into a cab mount. After some love from my rosebud tip on my torch and a pry bar I was able to bend it enough to have a path to the filler neck.

Now onto brakes, shock mounts and it will be ready to test fire and see if it goes anywhere. I still anticipate a few weeks since I get to work on it about 2 hours a week max.
