Re: Blazer wins again

Tried to reply to Dirtscoots.
here is mine, I use it every day. 2000 corvette LS swap. Go wheelin in it, use it for work unless i have to carry a bunch of weight then its the f350. I love this thing, everyone tells me not to paint it or do the body work lol. its hard not to but I dont have to worry about scratching up a beautiful Blazer.

Thumbs up Re: Blazer wins again

I would get rid of any body rot, then try to match the patina the best that you can.

Re: Blazer wins again

I was going to do that but now i cant find the pieces to replace it. They used to sell the body parts/panels/plugs where teh rust is notorious (as you can see) that you can weld on instead of having to buy the whole quarter panel. I have searched and searched LMC doesnt have them anymore either. any ideas on this?

Re: Blazer wins again

they always only have the front of the rear wheel, these trucks are notorious for rot in front and behind of all four wheels.
