Re: How Many 4 Wheel Drive Blazers Do We Have?
About the only remaining thing to do is to replace the rocker panels as they have rot. Rest of the truck is very clean, fortunately.

Yeah, it's an original Albuquerque truck, so in pretty good shape with the exception of the rocker panels.

Re: How Many 4 Wheel Drive Blazers Do We Have?
Day it was dropped off from shipper almost 10 years ago, and more recent pic. I've gone through all of the mechanicals over the years and haven't touched much of anything else. At least half of the miles I have put on it have been in the sand dunes.

Picked this '70 up a year ago. Saved it from rotting away in a field. Doing a full rebuild for a mild trail truck/camping rig.

Re: How Many 4 Wheel Drive Blazers Do We Have?
No. When purchased it had an add a leaf in the front and a two inch block in the back with period incorrect rallies and the little tires shown. It rode ok but it had a lot of rear spring wrap in the sand from the blocks and old springs. I've since replaced that with 2" tuff country springs all the way around. For some reason the rear is about an inch low which bugs me a little bit. I pulled the tires (31's) and rims off of a military M1009 and put '73 caps on it. I will probably test fit some 32's or 33's but having a hard time finding a tread pattern that isn't too modern. I like the look of the old Goodyear wranglers on it.

Re: How Many 4 Wheel Drive Blazers Do We Have?
It was hiding a lot of Bad body work, but not a lot of Rust. Torsion - Rocker Boxes good, Rocker panels not rusted, but dented up. And a nasty spot on the drivers side rear quarter (dent). Oh and Supposedly 69k original miles. It has a good story, unfortunately the only one who could tell the mileage passed away. But looking at everything and how good of condition a lot of it is in, I can believe it.

Re: How Many 4 Wheel Drive Blazers Do We Have?
Thanks Bryan. It's turning out better than I had hope for. My wife has now laid claims to it, so I need to make it hard to start or steer so I can have it back. Hope you had a good Christmas and a fun New Years.
