Re: How about some pics of 69-72 Blazers and Jimmys.

Nice looking pair. I also own a 1971 2 wd Jimmy and a 1972 4x4 Blazer. Love driving both of them. Best of both worlds. You can't beat driving them with the top off. But for now they wait patently in the garage for warmer weather.

Re: How about some pics of 69-72 Blazers and Jimmys.

Took Dad's old Jimmy to my first 4X4 Car Show in September (the RTI pics didnt come out good as Dad wasnt feeling good, and operating the camera with what we found out at the ER that afternoon was full flown appendicitis). This 71 Blazer rolled in midday, survivor/original other than a repaint in the 80's I think he said. Owner recognized my truck, turns out he used to race a white 72 "The White Whale" in the 70's alongside Dad in my Jimmy. The black Willy's is Dad's current offroader.











I've decided "patina" is ok, and since all but the driver fender and door are original panels, I'm going to concentrate on the engine bay while Dad's still around to enjoy seeing the truck transform-and I'm going to mildly offroad it, and use as a summer toy. Looks like an LS swap is in my future.

Re: How about some pics of 69-72 Blazers and Jimmys.

Just picked this one up, it's a 1972 Blazer 2wd with a 383/350th. I would like to air bag it and find some nice 20" wheels. I've never bagged anything before so it should be interesting. I'm not worried about it laying body or frame I just want to be able to adjust ride height.

Not mine - and apologies for the poor pic quality (phone pics) - this was parked out in front of a friends body shop today, it's going to get some rocker panel and other body work repair.

1 year is pretty quick - and you turned out a beauty. That paint job/color looks amazing. Just saw you had a build thread - going there next.

Re: How about some pics of 69-72 Blazers and Jimmys.

Liking him fine. Had to take care of the body mounts like what you had told me. The upper radiator neck needed to be rebrazed and had the radiator rodded at the same time. It runs cooler now lol. Getting ready to flush and bleed the brakes and power steering as well as change plugs and wires. Hope to get the speedo working soon too.

The kids LOVE it!!
