It's Alive!!!!!!!!!

Just like it says it's alive. The blazer I bought months ago that's been sitting for 8 + years. I finally bought some time and spent half the day on it and half the day on ol' blue. It needs a lil more work to be road worthy, but she moves on her own power now!

Re: It's Alive!!!!!!!!!

Too bad about the water pump but not to bad - when I fired my K5 up it had problems and turned out to be a bent rod - always an adventure!
