The Good, The Bad, The Ugly. Interior rebuild

Well got the blazer all gutted. No real surprises as far as floorbord rust goes looks pretty good. A previous owner was pretty liberal with tarpaper prior to carpet installation so as big of a pain that is to remove, it appears to have kept the floor from rusting. The tailgate is the most rusted part, will have to look at replacing that someday. The lower brackets for the rear side panels are pretty much rusted away, so I'll replace those. The drivers bed side has been replaced (must have been off a forest service rig because of the green color). The roll bar strut that attaches to the wheel well wasn't drilled or bolted so when I put it back in I'll drill and bolt that. The drivers seat was fitted with brackets to allow for about an additional 4" of legroom. Don't know if I'll keep those in use or just stock mount seat when I put it back together.

Started the body mount replacement yesterday, been talking with Vincey and comparing notes with him as he is replacing his too. Looks like I'll have to remove the radiator to replace those.

Still waiting for fatmat.......... ordered over 2 weeks ago.

I'll post pics after body mounts are done.
