BlazerFest was awesome>>

Me and My son Tyler with RyanB



Some of my buddys decided the flat olive drap I had painted on my pass side was too boring so they tagged my K5







That is all I have for now..I forgot my camera so I am getting thease photos from other people...

Good Times

K5 did AWESOME walked right thru/up the jungle trail. I did not go into the TankTrap..too much sheetmetal damage on that trail for me

Cool pics! I was wondering if your son was going to go with you. Glad to hear the new modifications worked well.

Re: BlazerFest was awesome>>

That looks like a blast! I like the paint job - great for running from the law or angry land owners too!
What's up with the Jeep in the front of the group photo?

Gun control, the theory that 110lb. women have the "right" to fistfight with 210lb. rapists.

The reason animal rights activists are more passionate about fur than leather is because it's safer to harrass rich women than bikers...

Re: BlazerFest was awesome>>

At least they had the consideration not to paint over your sticker. Looks like a way cool trip, glad your new mods. worked out for you.

So now you have to paint the other side to match???
Beer, Burt, and Paint syndrome....

BTW, I liked your right side flop avatar better. J.

Re: BlazerFest was awesome>>

I am soooo jealous.

Your paint job reminds me of the time way-way back in the day when I was building a pro-street Chevy Luv and next to it in the shop a friend was painting his drag car's engine purple.......a few drinks later and the side of my gray primered truck now had this hideous purple stripe with flames/scallops and checkers.

Re: BlazerFest was awesome>>

hahahah, ya that avtar I tried over at the other site doesn't look good...

As for the paint I will prolly just cover it up..I think the flames and such are fun but don't want it tagged like that..Prolly go for a one color down the road..most likely a good rattle can job.. The ODrab with black wheels and bumpers looks cool..duno yet...maybe a forest green or back to dark brown???
I'll keep painting just the pass side until I find the color I like hahhaaa

I really like the olive drab/black look.

I really like that narrowed rig, I'd like to see more pictures of that one.
