Radio delete to match, just in case.

Repainted top of dash and vents to match

Windshield frame. He even cleaned up my visors for me.

Windshield frame again.

My next priority is to put inner and outer grill on with bumper and clean it up. Outside body still needs some love but I think it will show well enough to leave like this for another year until I can save to paint whole thing.

Going to work on getting the tint off. I think it will help the looks a lot. It's hard to tell in picture it it has turned purple.

Looking nice. Glad you got it back and can enjoy.

All the tint is gone! Took me 4 hours with a really good razor blade. I like it much better.

OEM set of door panels all cleaned up and ready for install. They aren't perfect but they still look really good. I have to install outside mirrors and then they will go on. Does anyone have a good tip for installing the outside mirrors by yourself? I have brand new ones and I am having the worst time trying to put them on alone.

I put some dabs of Right Stuff sealer on the plates before installing them so that in the future the plates would stay in location should I ever have to remove the mirrors.
With the 2 studs sticking through, it's just a matter of carefully mounting the mirror and gasket by first bolting the mirror in the 3rd hole that has no stud sticking through, then the other 2 bolts one at a time. Just make sure you do this before the sealant has time to cure.

New steering wheel on. I really like it.

Got the grill in and bumper on. I have head light trim rings to put on still.

Looking good. Love the green!

Ok so I am going to try and post a little more. I have a 4yr old and a 22 month old that think my blazer is the coolest thing they have ever seen. I have been driving it a little more lately and I hope to keep tackling the to do list on it. Here's a cool shirt my wife had made for me.

Nice shirt - where did you find the dash pad? Looking for one in a similar color...

I believe I got it through LMC. It fits great
