Got a few more of the professional photos- there were more than 850 total- this is just a few of the ones with the truck featured:

Couple more pics, one of my son in daddy's 'new' truck, and the armadillo groom's cake on his carving block

I originally used a set of Slam Specialties RE7s; they are now AirLift Dominator 2600s, bolted in place of the rear coils

**67cheby** · 08-13-2011, 04:22 PM

LOL...she is a beauty, you did well !!

They were swapped into the Blazer to complete a matched set of Slams all around. There was apparently a worldwide shortage of RE7s at the time, so I ended up with the then brand new to the market Doms. They perform similarly, but have a softer feel. I will prolly swap back to Slams (SS6s this time) when and if these wear out...

Check out the suspension forum here for answers on how to mount them up. LOTS of guys have done this swap. Good luck!

classicchev · 08-14-2011, 10:18 PM

Hey Gringo, congrats on the wedding. Great to things have leveled off for you, and i see from a ccouple of those pics, you have not gained any weight yet either.

Now get back to work on the truck!!

Darren

butternut1972 · 08-14-2011, 11:36 PM

I just read through your build and you did a great job. Congradulations on getting married. Very nice truck.

70truckguy · 08-15-2011, 06:00 PM

Congratulations, she's a beauty. Truck looks good too

. Mine was broke down during my wedding, I wanted the same kind of photos but had to use my dad's '48 f*rd truck.

SCOTI · 08-15-2011, 06:24 PM

If I didn't mention it before, tell your new bride I said she's better lookin' than the truck (and I'm a truck guy

).

Thanks, man. I think the truck is done for now, excepting knick-knacks. My wife wants a '67 fastback 'stang, but she has a liking for fast and handling, so we may be able to work a deal for some go-fast goodies for the truck soon. I'd like to make it a low budget auto-crosser

Still looking for progress on the Blazer- I'd love to see that thing finished...

Haha- sorry, but at least your wife is cool enough to have a truck at your wedding
