I bought my first Jimmy! A 1970 with 67 front end. I pick it up next week.

Re: What did you do to your Blazer/Jimmy today?
 

Saw this truck on craigslist. Nice ride. Like the look of the 67 front end on it. Good luck with it.

Re: What did you do to your Blazer/Jimmy today?
 

Thanks, it works out perfect for me I have a 5.3 in my garage from a wreck I got to use front end parts for my son in laws truck. The Jimmys engine has issues and I will transplant the 5.3 and leave the 700R4 in place. Flash the computer, new mounts, new fuel pump, lines and a few weeks of time and it should be on the road again. (At least thats the plan)

Nice score deadhead. I rejected mine so I can now lock
The doors. Always a plus. Till need the hatch hardware so I can lock everything though.

Took the top off. In the words of my granddaughter, "She's roofless!!"

Re: What did you do to your Blazer/Jimmy today?

Good looking ride, I always thought Blazers looked good in white.
Is it stock height?

Thanks! Yes, she's stock height. I wish I had the original wheels.

Put my soft top on that i got from MIDUNES. Now if i only could get my seats back from the upholsterer i would take it for a drive!

I just bought a soft top. I'm about to install it. Is it easy to do? Any advice to help it go smoothly?

Re: What did you do to your Blazer/Jimmy today?
 

Its not too bad. The directions suck so i looked up a couple of threads on this site and found some good pictures so i kind of knew what i was getting into before i started. The main thing i would say is take your time and pre-drill the header snap holes because the self tapping screws that they give you are crap and you will strip out the heads if you are not careful. Other than that it went pretty smooth.

Thanks

After the header is on can you still use the hardtop or not?

Re: What did you do to your Blazer/Jimmy today?
 

You could still use your hard top but you would have to remove the header bar and the aluminum rails that bolt to the bed rails.

Re: What did you do to your Blazer/Jimmy today?
 

Put these on over the weekend. Now I need to get rid of my long tube headers. :metal:

Re: What did you do to your Blazer/Jimmy today?
 

dropped mine off at the paint shop and sent the seats off to the reupholsters dropping some cash but im hoping to get it in a car show this next weekend.. hope the planets align just right so I can wrap up this three year project.:metal::metal::metal::metal:

Re: What did you do to your Blazer/Jimmy today?
 

Filled mine up with E85 for the first time since Power Tour.

Re: What did you do to your Blazer/Jimmy today?
 

My jimmy got a bath, now it looks like its time to remove the top.

Re: What did you do to your Blazer/Jimmy today?
 

After many evenings of modifying the old 2001 5.3 engine harness and getting the computer modified to get rid of the 4L60 auto, Anti Theft stuff and the rear OX sensors. I dropped the 5.3 into my 70 Jimmy today on to Dirty Dingo mounts.

It was difficult to move the engine into place against my 700R4 once I dropped it in but there was a small bracket on the power steering pump keeping it from moving that I didn't see. It's in now but it took most of the afternoon/evening, tomorrow Ill connect it all up.

Re: What did you do to your Blazer/Jimmy today?
 

A big brown van dropped this off on July 3rd.

Hmmm, what could that be?
