thanks to one of our very good mississippi members given me a your lazy motivational speech to work on my trucks i have began skinning the blazer so i can replace it all with rust free (mostly nos and new take off) metal hopefully she'll look like a blazer again by sunday night. depending on the soda blaster. my old bedsides are on the parts board if anyone needs them

meathead95 · 07-14-2006, 05:39 PM

as a shameless plug those wheels and tires that are on it are the ones i have on the parts board for sale also.

Looks like you got your work cut out for you! Looks like you need a few more projects!

Nothing like a 2 wheel drive blazer!...I'm jealous.
