Should be Finished by Spring!!

Just excited and wanted to tell someone lol. I am getting the wiring finished up right now, I think taillights and headlights is all that's left. And then the interior is going in. Should be able to drive it around this spring. Will be awesome to drive it, I haven't rode in it since I was about 12 years old. I am 25 now. I started restoring it about 5 years ago after it sat for 8 years.

Re: Should be Finished by Spring!!

thanks, After it is driving I'm sure I will have some kinks pop up somewhere but it won't seem that big of a deal after it's that far. It will be this weekend before I can snap some pics.

Re: Should be Finished by Spring!!

I got my blazer when i was 18 in 2009. I'm 25 as well now and my blazer just left the shop for the first time in 3 years..... Its sad but also rewarding. I love the first drive after doing a huge amount of work and the pride you feel is second to none.

Re: Should be Finished by Spring!!

Here it is so far. Little messy inside but coming together. I have to repaint the hood because it flew up and broke when getting hauled on the rollback so I had to get the one that's on it. Aside from that once wiring for dash is done all interior will start going in.

I love those panels you made for the fender wells. I want to do something like that for my speakers. Also like the fatmat idea and center console. My father in law made a console like that for his camaro so he might could help me do something like that. Mine would have to be different with it being straight shift tho.
