My 1970 2wd Blazer 12 year project almost done
I thought I would throw some pictures up of my 1970 2wd blazer that I have been working on for the last 12 years. Still got a ways to go but she drives. Just waiting for the DMV to open up so I can take it off NON OP and drive it LEGALLY.

Re: My 1970 2wd Blazer 12 year project almost done
They work good with a little tweaking. Was nice that I live close to them and was able to order with no holes for door handle and window crank for a cleaner look. I Used velcro to give them a little better support.

Re: My 1970 2wd Blazer 12 year project almost done
I have the bumpers on the way and SLOSH mild tubs at the paint shop as well as tmi bed caps. Here is a couple pics after taking her out for a shake down today. I need to get the ass down another couple inches. Is anyone running the CPP rear coil over system and if so how low can you go?

Re: My 1970 2wd Blazer 12 year project almost done
This is a nice blazer. Are you using the stock frame and can you post more pics of your motor from the side. I have a 2wd that i am trying to install a 6.0l ls

Re: My 1970 2wd Blazer 12 year project almost done
I'm on a build real similar, and your's looks great brother....
What size tire's and wheels are you running? I cut the tops off of 6 junk door's and built my bed sides up to match the height of the door's on the blazer, I also welded my tailgate shut too. thanxs

Re: My 1970 2wd Blazer 12 year project almost done
Sorry guys I was out of town but thanks for the feedback. The color is Nardo Gray
and the stereo I am planning on running a hidden Bluetooth amp that will stream music from my phone with no head unit. The A/C is controlled by how far you stick your head up over the seat Lol. Rear tires are Toyo 295/40/20 and toyo 255/45/20 in the front. What are you wanting a picture of exactly in the engine bay? And yes it is the original frame. |

Re: My 1970 2wd Blazer 12 year project almost done
Some pics of the windshield frame a couple of you ask me about. We took a truck roof and cut and smoothed it all. Got the seat belts installed today and think I’m going with the blue lights on the cluster.

Re: My 1970 2wd Blazer 12 year project almost done
What's yr plans on vent window's? Are you running them? I see you cut the tops of the door area where the VW go in. It looks great how you smoothed everything up.
