Makovai and Green Monster - sweet K5's!!!!!

IGOR · 03-22-2006, 10:45 PM

Hey Makovai -

I see you on my way to work every once in awhile around 6:45-7am - You are always going East on 224 just before the overpass over 82nd ave/I-205. I always admire your Blazer when I see it - hopefully I will have mine up and running by summer! I drive a red crewcab GMC with a canopy & work at Warn Industries off Pheasant Ct. Anyway - nice to see a fellow Clackamas County member!

How long is it going to take to get it as clean as it was, will it ever be as clean as it was? Did you trash the enterior??

Nice shot!!! Too bad you didnt have any action shots

Illinois CST · 03-24-2006, 07:13 PM

yeah, this was the first time I tried to put pics on this site, so I'm still figuring it out. It took quite a while to clean the interior, it was pretty bad, but mostly clean again now. Thanks for putting up the links, I'll figure out the pic posting soon.

Even if the ends of that bumper were pushed in to the fenders to make it flow a bit better, it wouldnt look 1/2 as bad... , well maybe 1/2... but thats just IMO

trailzen · 03-25-2006, 08:35 PM

The bumper stayed on until the truck came off the trailer,but was off in the first 10 min.

That was a good move.Did You go with a stock one?Looks in real good shape.

trailzen · 03-27-2006, 11:01 PM

Yeah back to original chrome ,body is rock solid and all original including floors ,2 patches in floor2"x3" and passenger rear quarter has one patch about 1.5"square.This is the tow rig for my jeep but I'm falling in love with this one now too.Chevy duty is lovin'me!!

13lazer · 04-16-2006, 02:55 PM

i thought i already posted here, but i can't find it so here i am. i am in the process of gathering the rest of what i need for a 4" shackle flip to go with my 3/4 ton axles. here are some pics of where i'm at this week. all i need now are new sheet metal, engine, transmission and time. this one could be a while. its a 1972 k5 cst with all the options, even dash mounted throttle cable. i might put the sm465 or the 700r4, whatever i come across 1st. this one will be indestructable. my ultimate goal is to have a truck that can drive over k-rail if necessary.

**jamie72** · 04-21-2006, 09:24 PM

70gmcjimmy, welcome to the board, i think it preety cool you keeping your mom`s old jimmy, good luck with it!!

mijo · 04-21-2006, 10:21 PM

Here's my 72 k5 without the top.

Here is one with the top

*Medicanman71* · 04-22-2006, 12:21 AM

ooo la-la mijo, looks like you got a trick sidewinder/etc. winch going on behind that bumper! very cool! Nice blazer guys!

70gmcjimmy · 04-23-2006, 10:32 PM

Hey Jamie72, thanks for the welcome!
That Jimmy was the vehicle I got my 1st drivers license in in 1972, and I had many other 1st's in it too, some really good, some darn bad! In June of 1972, we had a flash flood here and all we got out with was that Jimmy and our lives. Nuthin left to go home too. It got us thru the water and saved us! 238
people died in that flood. I always figured I owed it to fix it back up someday,
so its a member of the family.
I still cant get over all the cool trucks y'all have, from the roughed up ones to the super clean restos! I really enjoy this site!

How is the 4X4 score vs 2wd? ---Later--- DAC

EFI70Blazer · 04-29-2006, 06:26 PM

Here is mine, looks like a hobo with new shoes right now. Just purchased a few months ago.

*Medicanman71* · 04-29-2006, 06:57 PM

Nice blazer man! Thank god mine isnt the orig. color anymore (no offence

)

EFI70Blazer · 04-29-2006, 08:20 PM

Actually the color was originally close to Lime Green. It is going to be Hugger Orange with grey interior when i am done.

*Medicanman71* · 04-30-2006, 09:14 PM

Post pics when you're done! Here is a shot i took at Avila beach today, not actually ON the beach
