I cut over to Puyallup and went that way home (still got some traffic) to avoid the N bound I-5 mess.

Thanks guys. Well, that’s part of why I do this job now. I like to joke I just have one long commute to work every month. I use to have to commute on I5 and I do not miss it. Only problem is I don’t think I could ever go back to doing that drive. That’s why anytime I have to head down to see Frank or Wes or meet up with you; it has to be between 10am-2PM or early weekend mornings haha. It’s nice to be able to pick and choose when to tackle that drive! Hope you get the C30 going soon. I saw your post about your panel. It looks great! Stash it away until you get motivated again!

I haven’t updated in a little while. I “finished” the Suburban and was just starting to enjoy it when my body/painter guy on my 72 Blazer let me know he was getting ready to shoot paint on it after 5 years. I decided to see if there was any interest in the Suburban so I could start making room and there was an overwhelming amount. Luckily a local guy bought it and he seems to really love it. Takes away a bit of the sting that it went to a good local home.

Looks great. Congrats on the sale. No surprise that sold. Now let’s see some action on the Blazer build thread - looking forward to updates.

Good to see you on here, Brandon. This place
is a wealth of resources and information. I’m warning you the 67-72 truck addiction can get pretty bad.
