Re: 71 Blazer "Finishing Touches"
Nice. I am completely jealous! I want a Blazer now. The interior is super clean and the engine looks immaculate. PM me what brand the headers are and the price tag on em!

Re: 71 Blazer "Finishing Touches"
Man let me tell you I am going to hate to see this thread end. Now I have to find another blazer thread to drool over. That thing looks awesome. It really does. Thanks for the detailed pics and descriptions of what was done. So what is on Tap next?

Thanks! Quote:
Eventually I REALLY want a blazer myself. I'm going to go the 2wd route whether I convert it or not and it will be a roadster (always topless) as this thing is such a pleasure to drive with the top off. Need to find a smaller house with a bigger garage before that can happen though ![]()

Re: 71 Blazer "Finishing Touches"
Thanks to everyone who's followed along and offered encouragement. It's been a lot of work but I've enjoyed it overall. Going to give my wife a break
![]() ![]() The next owner seems like a really nice guy from our phone and email conversations and he wanted to let everyone know he'll post pictures up at some point when he gets it.

33's can't remember the exact size unless I posted somewhere in the build. It was a 2" front / 4" rear lift. Since the blazers are lower from the factory in the rear it levels it out perfectly. Quote:
I was happy with how it turned out and got a TON of great comments on my few test drives with it. I REALLY loved the Blazer with the top off. Definitely want to have a 2wd version some day that's a full time roadster (no top)
