Re: Budget build 72 4x4

Why not just clean the wheels up and paint them? I was going to switch out my wheels from the ol'skool slotted rallies but mines a budget build as well so I just painted mine from white to black. Made a huge difference looks wise.

Looks a like a great base to start with. Everythings there. The only REAL project you have is the rust repair lol Otherwise everything else is simple enough to do.

Good luck and have fun.

I thought about that, but I'm a fan of chrome wheels, I do have a lead on a set of ultra wheels from a guy I work with. I'm going to have the buckshot tires mounted on them if it works out.

Re: Budget build 72 4x4

Nice ride! As a project spendoholic I am eager to see how a blazer gets built within a reasonable budget. Looking forward to the progress.
