Hope all my fellow truck enthusiasts had a great Christmas and New Years!!! Well I’ve gone as far as I’m gonna go with the buffer. Old paint cleaned up better than I expected but nothing perfect. I used the malco heavy cutting compound and a wool pad. Then applied some basic rubbing and polishing compound. Also found a beat up OEM woodgrain band in the shop rafters I threw on since the tailgate was pre drilled. Story on that is my old man bought a 1972 super c10 years ago and swapped it to 4wd. Why he removed the tailgate band idk but I gladly too it off his hands. He said that thing was in the rafters long before I was born so it’s at least 27 years up there..

Next plan for attack is I may hit the wheels with some polish but I’d like to see if we got a running engine or not… mice have chewed the plug wires so I’m gonna do new plugs and wires to start… hoping with in a couple weeks I’ll have some more progress on tht…

Looking real good, do not paint it please!!!!

Sorry guys not much progress. Picked up a pet time job on the weekend so my free time is really limited lately. Haven’t done much to blazer. I have been working on reproducing the rear axle trusses.. slow process and a lot of work but making progress. Hope to offer em to the board when I’m done.

Been over a year since I posted on this thread. Haven’t really done anything with the blazer. It’s waiting for its turn to get some love someday. Did scrounge some used parts for it. Front bumper and headlights and some steel below eyeline mirrors. Installed a new winch on the trailer so I had to test it out with the blazer. The wife came home very excited as she thought I sold it and was delivering it. She quickly realized that will never happen
