Re: My 78 Blazer Project!!

Man, everytime I see one of these Blazers it makes me want to build one...

The wife was talking about "what are we going to do with we have kids."
Apparently you can't put 4 people in a standard cab truck anymore?! WHO SAYS?! :-)

Regardless, one of these topless beauties with the bench seat would be AMAZING, and she could drive it...

When I showed her a 70's model suburban, she kind of freaked out at the size...

Hmmm... must start looking for blazer...
