So do the straps attach to the back seat armrests? I'm hoping to get one this summer.

Also, how do you find it drives with the bigger tires? Does it wander?

Man.....what an awesome transformation! You did a great job on that!

Must have been a great time in Pigeon Forge running around with the three of them together.

My '72 is not quite there, but getting really close. I drive it most every day now, and it gets compliments everywhere I go.

I've completely rebuild the entire drivetrain, and painted the front end (while it was off). Just about completed the interior, and will complete the door and bed paint in a few months.

Again, what a great transformation on your Blazer!

Is it just the angle or did you swap your grill?

No, I just had it re-chromed.
