How Many 4 Wheel Drive Blazers Do We Have? - Page 28 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

WILE E · 09-23-2009, 10:46 AM

Just got my first K5 a month ago. Was mostly stock with a 3" body lift and 35" swampers. Been working none stop on this with parts and pieces I have had tucked away here and there. And yes, been buying things as well. Can not get any pics to load, still trying.

Nice blazer

litebulblsc · 11-12-2009, 10:17 AM

These are some nice pics.
Did anyone actually count them to see how many we have?

**AsianBlazer** · 11-12-2009, 10:31 AM

Here is another, my first Blazer, not the prettiest but someday when I make it back from Japan and actually see it in person for the first time I will begin working it over. I like all your Blazers guys!

Wasted Income · 11-12-2009, 03:09 PM

About to have one less, here. Converting to 2wd

scoyote · 11-12-2009, 07:47 PM

OK, mine is done enough that I can finally add it to the thread.

Maiden voyage 11/7/09 - I put 250 miles on her that weekend and then it's back to the shop.

Fuel pump needs to be moved further down the frame rail so it's not working so hard trying to pull gas.

Front and rear bumpers to be fabbed and a winch added to the front.

Rock sliders and then start the interior.

But, it's far enough along that if/when we get good weather for a weekend...I can put it on the road!!

81bigbrett · 11-24-2009, 05:48 AM

Here's mine, I just picked it up a month ago for 3500. I've always wanted one since high school, so now I have a new money pit

**CMACDONALD1** · 11-25-2009, 02:00 AM

here is mine that I sold at a weak moment. This truck was original paint and had never been apart.

Firebirdjones · 11-25-2009, 12:29 PM

Here is our daily driver/family hauler. 74,000 original miles. Had one repaint about 10 years ago, at that time the original lower wood simulated moldings were removed. Otherwise it's all stock and unrestored.
I've found from people here the white with orange cloth interior was a highlander option. I've since bought new white with orange houndstooth seat covers through Chris (aka: Yellowblazer) from this site. Thanks Chris.
Gearing up for an LQ4/4L80E swap next for a little LS fuel injected power and overdrive cruising

Maybe I'll put the woodgrain moldings back on, I haven't decided if I prefer the clean look or not and whether I want to spend close to $800 for all of it or not. Maybe you guys can help me decide.

clos69 · 11-26-2009, 10:15 PM

Nice blazer FbJones...I vote to put the woodgrain back on for its original glory.
Here is mine with bigger tires

phx 4x4 · 11-26-2009, 10:30 PM

there are some nice looking blazers here ive always wanted one to cruise with the full vet top.

**Shock_Me** · 12-05-2009, 04:55 PM

My latest acquisition! 72 CST Blazer. White with red interior. 4" lift and 33's next spring

Chevyman63 · 12-05-2009, 05:27 PM

Damn that's nice!

**Shock_Me** · 12-05-2009, 06:01 PM

Thanks Chevyman63! Wish I could take some credit, but I bought her this way. Oh well, I still have a few plans for her! Lift and tires!

Cheers
Pete

Firebirdjones · 12-05-2009, 07:45 PM

In case you didn't know, the 33's fit without the lift. That's what we did with ours. We have to climb in as is and didn't really want it lifted. With the 33's and stock ride height it actually has more ground clearance than I'll ever need anyway.

Nice blazer by the way. Can't believe all the blazers on here. I haven't seen one on the road in years it seems. They must all be hibernating on the board here

**Shock_Me** · 12-05-2009, 07:51 PM

Thanks Firebird,

Yeah I know the rubber will fit, but I want the clearance for possible 35's in the future. It probably won't see too much offroading, but I still like the lifted look. Do you have a pic of yours so I can see the stance?

Cheers
Pete

**Shock_Me** · 12-05-2009, 07:55 PM

hahaha...you're rig is right above mine!
Stance looks great! Since you asked. I'd put the Moldings back on it shows its CSTness

Pete

Firebirdjones · 12-05-2009, 08:05 PM

Ah gotcha

Ya there is a pic of it just a few posts above yours, #687.

If that isn't good enough just shout, I can take more of a side shot for you.

Your a fast typer, you beat me to it

You are right, as others have told me too, so far it's been, put the moldings back on. Guess I'll have to look into that and get it done. I'll have to start shopping around for a complete kit.

**Shock_Me** · 12-05-2009, 08:22 PM

I think Mar-K has kits, as do Early Classic, and Brothers. I got a set from Brothers for my 68. Perfect quality, no complaints.

Makes a nice Xmas gift
