Would love to be considered for TOTM - just need to get it on the road first...

Thanks for the feedback all!

Re: Lks Dcvn - 1972 2WD Blazer Build
 

Looking good! Tuned in to see what's next.

Re: Lks Dcvn - 1972 2WD Blazer Build
 

Major milestone reached over the past week - back on 4 wheels again.

Drop is a front spindle drop 2.5" and rear spring drop 4" to keep it level.

You can see the Red Head Steering Gear installed on the frame in this picture.

She’s come a loooong way

Re: Lks Dcvn - 1972 2WD Blazer Build
 

That looks sweet just the way it is

Re: Lks Dcvn - 1972 2WD Blazer Build
 

Thanks for the comments - really looking forward to seeing this sporting the 1972 524 Red Orange (Hugger Orange) color.

Re: Lks Dcvn - 1972 2WD Blazer Build
 

Great exterior color choice ! Decided interior color ?

Re: Lks Dcvn - 1972 2WD Blazer Build
 

Going back to the stock layout from the SPID. 524 Hugger orange, black interior, black single wall top. No rear seat and no center console, which seems odd, but sure enough there were no holes in the floor for either of those.

Re: Lks Dcvn - 1972 2WD Blazer Build
 

I believe that utility seats came with no console.

Re: Lks Dcvn - 1972 2WD Blazer Build
 

True. And passenger seat, rear seat, and top were options.

Re: Lks Dcvn - 1972 2WD Blazer Build
 

Interesting - are the seat tracks (bolt holes in the floor) the same for utility seats and bucket seats?

Re: Lks Dcvn - 1972 2WD Blazer Build
 

The front bolt holes on top of the ridge in the floor are the same between the 2 different styles of seats, but the back holes are different. The Utility buckets have a longer seat track than the normal buckets.

Re: Lks Dcvn - 1972 2WD Blazer Build
 

Makes sense - what is strange is that when the Blazer got to me - it had OEM sport buckets on OEM bucket tracks, but not a second set of holes in the floor for where utility bucket tracks would bolt to the floor.

Oh well - going with sport buckets when I'm ready for them.

Re: Lks Dcvn - 1972 2WD Blazer Build
 

It's been a few years since I last came to this site. The box sides, rear floor and front floor are aftermarket specifically for blazer? What is the cost of those? Thanks

Re: Lks Dcvn - 1972 2WD Blazer Build
 

It's come a long way. Very nice work.

Re: Lks Dcvn - 1972 2WD Blazer Build
 

back view

Re: Lks Dcvn - 1972 2WD Blazer Build
 

So nice

Re: Lks Dcvn - 1972 2WD Blazer Build
 

To assure no rust was hiding, the header was removed, media blasted and epoxied inside. Also getting the final alignment with the top on before moving to body work...

Re: Lks Dcvn - 1972 2WD Blazer Build
 

Can’t wait to see this get back to the Buckeye state and see it up close !

Re: Lks Dcvn - 1972 2WD Blazer Build
 

Yes that is One Clean Looking Blazer. Great Job

Thanks for the feedback guys!
