that trruck is killer. does it look as good on the inside too?

hotrodhomi · 05-13-2006, 09:22 PM

I like the trim.

jakeslim · 05-13-2006, 10:18 PM

is that the black or wood trim? although the wood is proper to mine, i'm not sure I want to install it. I may go with black. Yours looks killer

**yote1234** · 05-13-2006, 10:28 PM

wow...two thumbs up....i like!

*Medicanman71* · 05-13-2006, 10:44 PM

talk about two thumbs up! That's killer. What size lift do you have? How much ca$h have you put into your paint (i don't blame you if you don't feel comfortable saying). Very nice.

71RestoRod · 05-14-2006, 12:28 AM

Awesome job. Looks great.

**Yukon Jack** · 05-14-2006, 09:29 AM

You gotta get some outside shots! Looks great from here!

vtblazer · 05-14-2006, 10:43 AM

We want more!

Pull it out side and give us the full view, inside and out. (please)

Blazers wear the orange really well, very sharp ride.

*72CSTC5* · 05-14-2006, 10:43 AM

That is gorgeous. Now go drive it!!!!!!!!!

orange72blazer · 05-14-2006, 11:35 AM

GMC71k20- The tires are Goodyear MTR's, the rims are Mickey Thompson.

makovai- I'm still working on the inside, basically I just need new carpet, the seats are out of a 1997 suburban they look and fit great.

jakeslim- The trim is woodgrain, everyone that has seen the blazer in person thinks it looks a lot better with the trim on (only one side is done right now)

Medicanman71- 4" tuff country springs in the front with ORD shackels and geaseable bushings. 4" block with an add a leaf in the rear and a 3" body lift. As far as the paint goes it's just a garage painted base coat clear coat paint job. I didn't want something so nice that I'd be afraid to drive it.

Yukon Jack & vtblazer- It been raining here for the last week and dosen't look like it's going to end anytime soon, but when it does I'll back it out and get some pics.

72CSTC5- Don't worry, as soon as it gets warm and sunny I plan on driving it all over the place. Hopefully I'll even get it out to the dunes this year.

Really nice

IGOR · 05-15-2006, 12:27 AM

Looks awesome-

So does it fit under the garage door okay?

That's my next Blazer project when I get my engine done - to put in an 8' garage door - Mine won't fit in the garage with the top on - it just clears with no rollbar & top off...

blazerparts · 05-15-2006, 10:09 AM

very nice!

krue · 05-15-2006, 01:56 PM

with everything said above, especially the call for more pics!

It clears the door by about 4 inches or so. When I had my garage built, my builder told me if I put an 8' door it should clear a truck with a 6 in suspension lift and a 3 in body lift.

71jimmy · 05-16-2006, 02:56 PM

Very, very nice!

I just built my garage last summer and only put a 7' door on it. It cleared my 9" with the 35's if i took the molding off the garage and let a little air out of the tires. Well now i have the 36's on it but i used 10" wheels so its almost a push, but i do have to let just a little extra air out of the tires now.

BTW your rig might be the sweetest on this board, man is it sharp.
