Nice bigdon-70blazer - that's the color of my first K5

**jaros44sr** · 01-27-2007, 01:44 PM

Nice find BigDon, what are your plans for it? That rear bed floor looked pretty clean! J.

**bigdon-70blazer** · 01-27-2007, 05:02 PM

You can look at some of my other posts for more pics, but currently I have completely disassembled it. The frame has been sand blasted and now repainted and assembled. I am currently getting ready to build a rotisserrie and get the body mounted for a little media blasting. I plan to leave it a stock as I can, just a few upgrades. Medium olive green paint, upgrade the utility buckets (maybe), rally wheels and trim rings as opposed to the stock 15X7 wheels and hub caps. Fixing the small rust issues forced me to do most of the disassembly so I just went a little further. M first project and I am pumped! Going a little slower than I would like though. Thanks for the looks!

**jaros44sr** · 01-27-2007, 05:42 PM

I didn't realize you took it that far apart. Don't worry about slow as I am the king of slow. I 'll have to look for your pics. J.

Well it's not a Blazer, but it could be one.

One pic of the Jimmy and one pic to prove that it's a 4x4.

Hello fellow board members. I thought I would jump in. Still no new progress to report. I still own it and it still looks the same. I'll get it done one of these years.............Been noticing some real nice rides on the boards as well as projects. Nice to know I am in good company.

That's gonna look good when it's done. Hopefully some of those nice rides will get you motivated to finish her up (hopefully it will help me too).

"Here is my baby, just disassembled currently!
Bought it with 56,000 actual miles out of SW Kansas and brought it here to SE Missouri! Needs outside rockers and front floor patches but other than that, it was completely unmolested and original!"

I really like how that looks. I want to buy your stock wheels and hubcaps if you don't want them.

cstanley · 02-01-2007, 12:57 AM

Hulk, that's gonna look great! I've been wondering how those rallyes would look. hope you don't mind if i save your pic to show the wife...

I took it for granted that when you said "Here is my baby" that there pictures of it. Sorry

Jtrux · 02-03-2007, 12:21 AM

After I reread it about a thousand times I realized my error, it does kinda look like I was refering to my truck. Sorry for my mistake.

Southedisto · 03-04-2007, 02:04 PM

TTT with some current pics.

**jaros44sr** · 03-04-2007, 02:11 PM

Nice ride South, like the paint. You beat me to completion. I really like the way it turned out. More pics!!!! J.

Didn't know there were any hills in SC, guess 'cause I was locked up in Parris Island, didn't get out much....

I quit living in dream world and faced reality and got it streetable. I have a lot of small things left but it makes it easier now that I can drive it. I'm trying to figure how the interior is going to be completed, but it looks like the picture currently. I chose the tan because it will be a cooler color during the summer.

Here are a few more

Big Block · 03-04-2007, 02:50 PM

Southedisto where did you get your soft top?
