Re: How about some pics of 2wd Blazers, Jimmy's & Burbs?

Thank u. I think it was a green'ish color. The guy I picked it up from repainted it red. I think I like the red on it. I'm hoping to get different ideas and insight on what other people have done. I've been looking for a while and found this old girl pretty rust free and not over priced.

That truck would be sweet in the original color, there's something about the 73/74 grill that loves the funkier factory colors of that era.

I owned this truck 4 years ago and just traded back for it. 117k right miles on a 454FI 2WD. Its a nice truck with rear air. I am going to repaint it and bring it back around!

I remember when you bought that truck. You bought it and flipped it pretty quick, didn't you?

Re: How about some pics of 2wd Blazers, Jimmy's & Burbs?

I'd been looking for a 2 who Blazer for a couple of years before I found this one on craigs list from a local small dealer.
I bought a beater 4 who '74 to convert to 2 who but may use it to convert to a full top on the '76

With the Thorebeck drop member kit it is using a rack and pinion off a 79-93 Mustang.

This is the kit that I am using.
