Well, I don't know about my truck being "killer", but I can give you a few "before", and "during" shots. I'm nearly done with it now body wise.....

After I finish the rest of the body (cab interior painted, drivers door painted, drivers rear fender painted, and the windshield area on the cab), I'm going to purchase the rest of my front end rebuild stuff, and hopefully have it on the road in the next few months.

Enough yapping, here are the pics:

This is the last thing I did with my 70. Picked up a new bed fro it and set it in place. That was back in late April. Been doding school and the shop since then. Hopefully I'll get back on it soon.

LUV2XCLR8- I've watched that blazer since it came up for sale, drooling at the pics. All I have to say (other than I"M JEALOUS) is that I hope you can finish that thing like it deserves to be finished, because someone has set the bar high for you, lol. Good luck, and keep the pics coming of the finishing touches.

I havent had a lot of time the past 6-8 months to work on mine, so progress has all but stopped.

Here is the last picture I took ... which was about 6 months ago .... trial fitting the front fenders, grill and hood.

Awesome deal slogo, that's the size I've been wanting to run on the back of my 68. Now that I see them, I think I'm sold. Thanks again!
