Getting closer

**DeadheadNM** · 06-06-2019, 09:52 PM

Did you remember to install those foam thingys between the cowl and upper fender?

**DeadheadNM** · 06-08-2019, 02:16 PM

Had a 71-72 GM accessory cruise master cruise control installed. See the button under the dash.

That's awesome! Time to pack it up, put it to the test and get it out on the road!

Sorry Dale I missed this. Not yet. Still at the shop getting a few other tweaks like an odometer swap, choke adjust, and slider windows: http://www.musclecarrestorations.com...Blazer-72-001/

Pete...sliders look outstanding. Died when I saw the antenna ball in the first pic.

**litebulblsc** · 06-08-2019, 08:30 PM

Welded lower shock mounts on my 14BFF and finished cleaning and painting the rear frame while it's exposed

**SoCoC10** · 06-11-2019, 09:28 AM

Wipers, wiper arms, antennae, grill assembly and front bump installed.

Lol!

jeffg1010 · 06-14-2019, 09:54 AM

I washed it! 11:00 last night I was in the driveway washing in preparation for the Piedmont Traction cruise tonight and cookout tomorrow!

**wesmigletz** · 07-27-2019, 09:04 PM

Well, I finally made it back to TX to see the Blazer my wife and I bought off ebay a few weeks ago. I'm working in CA and only make it back once every 3 or 4 weeks. Anyway, the body was rougher than I expected, but savable.

After a carb swap and replacing the rubber hose from the tank to the fuel line, and from the line to the fuel pump, I got the Blazer running and even drove it around my yard. Got the turn signals and brake lights working, too. Unfortunately, no dimmer switch or connector, so no head lights. Going to replace the tires and brake soft parts on my next visit over Labor Day and drive it and see how she does on the road.

Hope the video works

LED's are awesome.

Those lights look nice.

Got the Air Conditioning serviced. Blows much colder now. Pulled the glove box insert and replaced a bad blower motor rely. Blows cold and has "Hi" on the fan setting.
