Bringing my 72 4x4 4 speed Blazer home this weekend. Not the prettiest - but oh the potential.

Looks original, always a good place to start.

Welcome to the club.

And now the fun begins...

Gotta love the 4 speeds.

Pop's72 · 02-27-2007, 04:38 PM

now what are you going to do to it?

RicksTrucks · 02-27-2007, 04:54 PM

Turn it into my daily driver so I can begin the frame off of my 69 SWB. And have fun next winter if it turns out as bad as this one has been.

Looks awesome to me - just needs a little attention.

*72CSTC5* · 02-27-2007, 06:49 PM

Looks clean except for the fact that you need to replace the bottom foot around the vehicle it looks like. Good luck and enjoy.

bouncytruck · 02-27-2007, 07:08 PM

Holly huge running boards!

Interesting mix of base model bumpers and CST side markers...

RicksTrucks · 02-27-2007, 09:33 PM

Here are some more

70gmcjimmy · 02-27-2007, 10:05 PM

Welcome to the Blazer/Jimmy club! That is a dang nice truck to start with. I gotta get more done to drive one again. The pickup is fun but hard to beat the 4x4!

Later---DAC

Cool, just like mine, except mine's blue, a 1970, and a GMC, but the rust looks familiar.

RicksTrucks · 03-05-2007, 04:31 AM

Picked it up. More rust than I had hoped, but it is a start. Will probably be looking for a new tub. Will post pics later.

Big Block · 03-05-2007, 08:21 PM

Glad you made it home ok. How many hours did it take?

RicksTrucks · 03-06-2007, 10:12 AM

Not quite home yet, got into Little Rock around 2am. Had a nice dinner with luv2xclr8 and got to see his Blazers.

RicksTrucks · 03-07-2007, 05:43 PM
