That's a quote from one of those above threads.

Course it needs a correction

Makes me rethink my old gas tank, can someone say fuel cell...

Cut the windshield off with a battery powered sawsall, go 3/4 tons, tube doors and meet me at Rausch Creek. Things there cause more damage then a parking lot!!! J.

I guess he wasn't lying about it being his last post. Oh well, at least he posted its demise before he left.

**Yukon Jack** · 08-21-2007, 10:37 AM

I just hope he sees it is likely salvageable. And I still want to know the whole story of what happened!!!

Luv has ESPN

jaros44sr · 08-21-2007, 05:57 PM

I think he rolled it as his final goodbye, JMHO

jaros44sr · 08-21-2007, 07:51 PM

First time I've seen the BS flag fly, pretty good description of the whole situation though, bout sums it up. Good Bye AJ

jaros44sr · 08-21-2007, 07:52 PM

How'd I post on top of you, it's 8:26 in Vermont and 7:51 in Pennsylvania. Maybe cause I'm pink again....

Wish the guy would log back in and explain some.

I've posted enough, everybody knows how I feel about it...nothin' but

crzngmychvy · 08-22-2007, 02:19 PM

Man, that's terrible.

jkaylor68gmc · 08-22-2007, 02:22 PM

That is sad, mark one less Blazer in existance.

bouncytruck · 08-22-2007, 02:33 PM

On the bright side, those of us that aren't dumb enough to do what he did (or let someone else do) just saw the value of our rigs go up a little!

That's cold man.

Wow! Are you kidding me???? Ever hear of a roll bar!! Hmm, whipping donuts on hard pavement in a lifted 4x4 with big tires will flip it over? Who knew? It's sad to see such a great machine wrecked so carelessly. It's a wonder you weren't killed. I cannot mourn with you, you don't deserve it. The guy who posted recently about the tree falling on his truck, that guy deserves some sympathy. Do us a favor leave the vintage iron alone and drive something that doesn't matter if it flips, like a Ford.

Too funny!

I'd bet this guy never post's again.

Tradject accident but damn predictable.

I'll take that bet, pay off is 3 beers at the campfire, 3 to 1 odds. If I lose, I'll drink 9 beers and you drink 1

He's gotta come back to defend himself

Sorry this thing had to include the Jimmy getting squished, even if it did have a crooked emblem on the hood

AJ4X4TJ · 08-24-2007, 11:24 AM

Blazer Nation,

YES, you are ALL right! My Blazer was so screwed up from the very beginning, and it's design caused it to be where it's at today; in the grave!

Yes, I did have problems with it as i was building it.
But Yukon Jack's links and comments are "history only" since those problems were completely fixed.

I am not a professional (as you can see) when it comes to building Blazers and that's why i came to this site, to seek your advices and opinions.

The Blazer is long gone now and i got paid back for every dollar that i put into it; $16,904.97
With that money i already bought something else, that i like a little bit more than the Blazer; 1943 - GPW
(I purchased it from a 2 star Army General who drove it during the war and brought it back with him after the war...incredible story) Enjoy the pictures.

Thank you all for being so kind and helpful in the past.
You are all great and wonderful Nation.

Respectfully,
