I felt the same way when I took Yeller apart, I felt like I was killing it.

yeah after many different plans of action i finaly decided to keep it and get a economical daily driver. the blazer will probly get dropped 4/5 and a few other things but not much. let just say when i put the 84 together the last time since i was planning on driving it everyday there were some things holding me back, and i don't have to worry about that any more

I had a 67 GTO conv. that I sold years ago. I'm still kicking myself in the dirt-box for that mistake. I wish I could show you the POS that I drive everyday so I never have to drive my shortbed. I like what someone said here once about putting it away until your interested in it again. So true! FYI-> I know how you like the stock rallies and was wondering if you ever saw them in 15X10's. I just got a pair from Paulsen Motorsports for $150. These wheels are sweet. 5 inch backspace. I got a phone number if you need it.

I know how y'all feel. I haven't driven the Chevy in a couple of weeks. I ought to go out and start it up just to make sure the battery doesn't go dead. I leave her in the carport when the road salt's out these days...

Glad to see you decide to keep the 84 Ryan. You know you would have regretted it for sure.

I like 2wd drive blazers. Did you know they made 2wd blazer extremes that were lowered 2 " from the factory. These are kind of rare. My wife has one a 02 blazer extreme with with a 5 speed 4.3. I took this pick after it snowed. It snows here once every 5 years. It was kind of funny I got stuck at the end of my street.. We got funny looks

Hey Ryan I'll get some pics on here Monday of my old blazer. It had spindles and 3" springs ( I also heated them) and 3" leafs and 3" blocks. I never got to finish it.

I've been looking into getting an S-10 or S-10 Blazer too. I need a more economical daily driver esp. when I I start full time at school in the fall. Its a pretty good drive there and back every day and its going to be just to much for my truck to handle I think. Even if the truck could handle it I don't think I could afford to keep it running five days a week. Where are you going to keep the 84?

Blazer pics. Notice the red truck in the background. Look familiar? It's came a long way since then.
