Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way

Can you imagine if we all lived on the same street, alot of beer drinking and not alot of rebuilding

The blazer build that got sidetracked for more manspace, maybe you'll have enuff room to get the engine out of the basement

We need pics or it is not a legit reason to stop the build lol

Jim, there's time for both haven't ya heard?

Yes, a lot of basement 'stuff' will find its way into the garage.

Here's some "proof" pics.
The one of the kitchen shows the temp. wall and to it's left is where the new steel beam will go.

Other two show the future garage space.
Garage will cover from the dirt bank to about 3ft left of the concrete pad.
Dirt bank on the right is where the retaining wall will be obviously.
Garage will have a 9 or 10ft ceiling and the peak will be as high as the gable end peak you can see in the pics.

Last pic is of the new kitchen parts to be installed.

Very cool! I dig the steel roof. Not many of those in this neck of the woods. Obviously your snowfall out there would make it manditory.
