I'm back!!!! 13 years with my blazer...What to do?
I've been a member here for a long time... The last couple years I have been playing with this.
I recently had my daily driver totaled. So I've been daily driving my A since Febuary. I know I will need something else to drive come winter. That is where the blazer comes in. I basically started tearing it down a few years back for rust repair and a Diesel swap. I didn't get much past taking the interior out and removing the engine. So I decided to put it back together and just fix the rust and paint it. That is this summers project. It's currently back running and with the interior stripped. Time to start cutting... on that topic does anyone have links to good rust repair threads? I need to do some refreshing... thanks Red72

I was wondering where you went. You got lucky we've had a mild winter since you've been drivin' the T.

Me too! welcome back....
Doesnt look to bad, hows the tosion box, best way for fix is to get that out of way. Then you can prep and rust prevent on both sides of the floorboard. I plan to use Waxol for that. Cool model A, are the brakes still cable actuated?

Yes, the A still has the mechanicals on it. My plans for it next winter are to lower it, installed 16 inch wires and hydraulic brakes. 80-90 hp 4 banger and syncro transmission.
