Re: Left for dead: 72 2wd blazer build
Jaros44sr, Lol!! Believe it or not that's what I did! I had an orange 4wd 72 that I got rid of because it was too rusty. A few months later I ended up getting this. I just meant that there are so many more parts to a Blazer versus a truck. That and it cost a small fortune to acquire all of the missing Blazer specific parts.

I was very impressed how you were able to graft all the different pcs. together, mine was luckily mostly patch panels( repop), altough later on I would like to come back and put a full floor in it, that is after I get all the current systems functioning as they should. Today was typical 2 steps 3 steps back, as I taking things apart that was already assembled. Like the alt. mount

Re: Left for dead: 72 2wd blazer build
I hear you Jaros! Back then $900 might not have bought much but it won't get you ANYTHING today! Its funny now that the Blazer is done people ask how much I paid for it? I tell them $1,000. Which is technically true. As for grafting panels together I spend a lot of time looking at everything thinking of where the best place is to make my cuts. I prefer used OEM panels when I can find them, but repops are fine if you don't mind massaging them. I definitely feel your pain on the 2 steps forward and 3 steps back days!!
