Re: 70 Blazer Frame Off
Oh my...Bring A Trailer is haunting me right now. It is Halloween I guess.
...still not a fan of the anodized grill change. Prefer the black letters and stripes. Chassis could use a detail...but on balance not terrible. I sold it five years ago with 200 miles on it (and a 350), so she's only done 226 since (and less on the LS). I guess we'll get to see the market on it now. (EDIT: And they linked the cut and paste YouTube video! ![]()

Re: 70 Blazer Frame Off
Crazy to think it has crisscrossed the US from MT to GA to CA then landed in Canada. Still looks great!

Re: 70 Blazer Frame Off
Too late to buy this Blazer?
The before & after are rich, you probably miss the 5-6 washers on the cowl panel most. Looked familiar, though you have mine beat. I'm still two on the RH side ![]() So much to like about that truck, the body/trim lines are nuts for starts.

![]() How did you reduce your cowl panel from 5-6 shim washers to none? I mentioned mine unfortunately takes 3/16", which is the side that was swiped. Otherwise the panel is good. It hasn't been painted yet, might be an option to change it. Too late to change the cab.

Right, I didn't see it - nifty idea.

Re: 70 Blazer Frame Off
I totally missed it, but the old girl hit the block again last year. You can see how I might have overlooked it. Certainly not my cup of tea...but then again somebody else is buying the bags. Still less than 700 miles on her at the time of the auction. Barrett-Jackson seems to be the one cashing in the most.

Those wheels are worse than the often used '80's Rallys.
![]() This is an example why you don't mess with perfection. Everything they have done to this has been a downgrade..

But I am happy to say that I'm about to add another thread to my sig and this truck will be a keeper. Hopefully you'll come check that one out. It will at least have the virtue of having a different ending.
