Finally getting to enjoy my 70 Blazer after 5 years
I found this blazer in sheridan wyoming 5 years ago in bad shape. It was an oversize load chase rig for mountain trucking. I have not been working on it constantly but here and there. It needed all new floors, rockers and a few lower quarter panels. Had a locked up 400 sbc but the rest of the drivetrain was solid. I went through and regasketed everything and put in a stockish 350. I love shiny new paint but i drive my trucks and didnt want to worry about getting bumps and scratches so i left as much original paint as possible and color matched the panels i replaced. It has all new interior and a bluetooth custom auto sounds "factory" looking radio with kick panel speakers. It still needs a few things to be 100% but i have been driving it daily and enjoying it big time. Here are a few pictures. Hope you all enjoy
