Re: Pictures and spec's...

absolutely perfect, my 84 sits the same way, I love the stock clean look! I'm in the process of painting mine,(was red and tan) and have been going back and forth with red, black, black with flames, white. now I've seen a white one and I'm impressed

Re: Pictures and spec's...

Beautiful truck! I bought an '86 swb new and had an '87 swb a few years later. Your truck makes me wish I them back. If I had your truck I wouldn't change a thing. (and I ALWAYS change things!) AWESOME!

Why? I like yours the color it is. By the way, if you really want it white you can always paint it! But your truck looks great.

I have just always liked white vehicles. I like the look, they stay cooler in the Texas sun, and they don't show the dents and ripples that all of my old junk always has.

Thanks for the nice comment.

THANKS... I am ALWAYS wanting change as well, it's just too addictive! I have thought about going 20's next... but we will see. I have a post in the "Photo Shop" thread with 20's on it... I'm liking it ALOT. Btw- nice Blazer... I would like to have one of those next!

Re: Pictures and spec's...

I like 20's too,... But the truck almost needs to be bagged to make them look low enough. I don't plan on EVER selling the blazer,... BUT if you ever decide to get rid of your truck,... give me a shout! Keep us posted on the 20's! (I'm also looking for a clean 73-87 short wide bed only, for my crew cab project,... if you know of any!)
