Medium Red? Looks Green to me!

Looks like the AC is missing all the vitals ahead of the carb?

Do they actually call that a Chevy Blazer up there? I have a friend from Calgary who used to tell about all the name changes for Canadian sales. Dodge trucks were Fargo trucks, Our turbo Suzuki Swift is Canada's Pontiac Firefly, etc etc etc. That'd be sweet to have a unique badged Blazer.

Re: I finally joined the club

Looks like a nice one. That's actually what my SPID said mine looked like originally, but when I found it it looked like crap and had a white top. It's cool to see a nice shiny example of the green/black top combo.

And yes, it looks like are missing the A/C compressor, brackets, lines and probably the condenser in front of the radiator as well if I had to guess.

Re: I finally joined the club

Very Nice. In regards to AC, from the little I can see, you are missing the compressor and brackets (I think I can see one piece on the intake, and the lines. Can't see if the dryer and condenser are on the front of the core support.

Re: I finally joined the club

Very nice blazer. It's funny I see people complain because all they can find is green and ochre vehicles, and yours was originally red and someone painted it green! Looks really good though!
