Re: PO has me PO'd

Valentines Day, my wife asked me if there was anything I needed for my truck. My immediate response was a BBWM, I called Ben at enegineed vintage and he had one in stock for a 67-72, should be here next week

That will look pretty good tucked up under the front

I know all about COVID, went thru 4 immediate family over the holiday season, I even had a touch of the flu myself, thank goodness for vaccines.

Glad you still have the trucks and wagon, when the weather breaks, maybe I can get to see it.

Wife and I do day trips to Brielle....

Started install, mock up of the BBWM, just had to remove outside bumper bracket as bolt was interfering with mount, I was going to install winch mount with the bumper in place, but decided it was easier to get the bumper out of the way......


Nice part so far, just some of the bolts are not threading by hand, I may run a die on them, I plan to use low mount, since, I won't have to cut a hole in my nice bumper to mount a fair lead

Thanks for watching
Jim

Retirement is great, lots of truck time, just a different lifestyle

Glad everything is good at home

Just ordered my shackle mounts, was worried someone would steal my tow hooks, price of those has gone thru the roof

Seeing the prices of Blazers, they would probably just steal the whole thing.

Got the battery cables mounted the way I want them

Yes on the brush guard, seems to me it makes the front end come together, sorta tough look

Re: PO has me PO'd

This part needs some attention, looked at several videos from fitzees fabrication and will attempt his method, part is in reproduction, but don't want to pay

Re: PO has me PO'd

This is what the reproduction looks like, minus surface rust, but it's for the wrong side
Should make a good template though

Re: PO has me PO'd

Looks like your original might almost be salvageable. Will be getting ready to start on all that soon on mine. Got all the new parts that have been sitting here since 2016 i think
