Re: Hemi's 70 Blazer build
Just brought the Blazer out for the first time this year. I decided to tackle a rattle that has been bugging me since I finished the build, and finally got it solved. I put a small rubber block on the door window frame that contacts the A pillar. Man, this made a huge difference, because it now prevents the two from touching on rough roads. At least now there's some pressure on the door when closed. Best part is that it's almost impossible to see when the door is closed.

Re: Hemi's 70 Blazer build
Another solid Blazer hack. Very smart Dan.

Re: Hemi's 70 Blazer build
How did you attach it to the window frame? Sheet metal screw?
Thanks, great thread! |

Re: Hemi's 70 Blazer build
Yeah, I didn't want to put holes it it but figured it wouldn't move if it was screwed down.

Re: Hemi's 70 Blazer build
I just went thru your entire build, very nice job and cool video.
I noticed on page 1 that you made your own rocker reinforcement plates from the old rusty ones. I'm currently at that stage with my 70 Blazer and was wondering if you have a .dxf file for the profiles you would be willing to share? Thanks Mike |

Re: Hemi's 70 Blazer build
Finally got a day with no rain !! Went to the lake to see how high the water levels were because we are at record conditions. Looking forward to another trip to the Syracuse Nationals in a couple weeks. Hoping for better weather.
