well i sold off the blazer and bought another 1/2 ton.
this one is a 1968 chevy c/10 all recently redone. just come out of the paint booth 2 days ago. awesome shape, no rust anywhere. it has a 350 dyno at 385 horse

350 turbo tranny with 2500 stall, 3:73 posi rear. there is a few things i dont like, like the mirrors and the back bumper, but i will be changing these and then they will be up for sale.

have a look hope you like.

looks sharp, keep us posted

bouncytruck · 05-23-2003, 02:53 PM

Very nice looking truck. Looks like it is bone stock. Are you gonna miss the Blazer?

1969 GMC · 05-23-2003, 03:03 PM

Nice truck, are those mirrors in nice shape? If they are, I'd be interested. Thanks.

Wabash · 05-23-2003, 03:04 PM

yes i will miss the blazer but theres just something about 2 wheel drives that i cant stay away from so i am totally happy with this find.

the mirrors are in prettyu good shape they could be rechromed but a scothbrite pad or sos pad would prob take away the little rust that is on them away.
i will make a new post after i get them off and am ready to sell. and since you asked first you will be the first to get them if you still want them later on.

1969 GMC · 05-23-2003, 03:52 PM

thanks, my truck needs a new set and i'd prefer originals to repros. as long as they arent dented or dinged, sounds good.

Looks like a great sleeper. on the outside it doesn't look so mean, but I bet when you open it up, she screams like a banshee

Nice new toy!!!

Wabash · 05-23-2003, 05:02 PM

thanx for all the comments.
i think the next thing i will be doing is getting some new rims and some big fat meats for the back.
that should make it look a little meaner

1969 GMC · 05-23-2003, 05:59 PM

i think it looks cool with the whitewalls...what a sleeper!

Good looking truck!

1969 GMC watcha gonna do with your pass. side mirror if you get new ones? My mirror was torn of bracket by PO.

9teen69 · 05-24-2003, 11:15 PM

Nice find! I'm looking for some stock rallys for the 69, if you want to get rid of them.

1971 Cheyenne · 05-24-2003, 11:19 PM

Nice ride! Now it's time to change your avatar!

1969 GMC · 05-25-2003, 05:11 PM

krue,

the mirror head on my psgr side is newer, dunno if its stainless or chrome. with a cleaning it'd look nice, but the tripod arms are pretty crappy looking. looks to have about 4 coats of paint.

Slammed67 · 05-25-2003, 05:20 PM

Hey, that lower body trim doesn't look like the original style. What is it?

krue · 05-25-2003, 05:41 PM
