The blazer post op
I got the blazer back from the body shop on Friday. It doesn't look dramatically different, but all the rust is gone! He fixed the rust and repainted everything below the bottom trim. In a month or so it's going back to have the glass replaced the hatch and have some fiberglass work done around the latches. It sure is good to have it back. The last couple pics are of one of my other "toys". I took it out of hibernation today and snapped a couple pics. It's a little dusty, but she sure runs good around 70! Later.

Re: The blazer post op
Looks like the old 53 Bel Air is a power glide. Sure is a clean old car. Not many left in that kind of shape.

Re: The blazer post op
I like your rides. I had two '53 210's. I really liked those cars.

Re: The blazer post op
That came out nice!Is the interior painted or was the color changed before the "Eagles" were put on originally?

Re: The blazer post op
Your guess is as good as mine. I really don't know. It's hard to believe someone would order a orange interior with a tanish exterior.
