Back at it..... New location....
I was finally able to get my blazer out of storage and to its current home. Not my garage but a very cool neighbors garage thats just across the street. I had to buy a few new tools..... (yeah right.lol... had too...) Picked up a new mig and a air compressor..... Found a nice tool box too. Now that its summer I have to find the time to work on it.... I've started the floor board process. I've got all the metal including new rocker boxes. I hope it all works out.... I'd hate to have goofy gap at any of the body lines, lol.... I know you guys are all about the pics so here ya go...
    After I get some of the body work going I'm going to pull that 350 and drop in a 327 that my dads giving me that came out of my grandpa's 69 lwb.... Last edited by Big J; 04-09-2007 at 09:56 PM. |

We got that fuel tank finished up last night so thats out of the way.... I'm going to start cutting out the bad parts of the floor tomorrow night.

Re: Back at it..... New location....
Yep, I've been workin' on this thing so long that when I tell someone about it my story always starts out with, "In the before time, in the long long ago, there was a blazer".
