Trife, I know how you feel, I have all kinds of floor panels, rocker panels, etc. waiting for time to weld in... when I feel overwhelmed I look at the pics of Gee Emm's jimmy or slogo's blazer and I get fired up again...

Good luck and congrats, Rg

Yeah...I know how it feels...I have so many things to do, but I think I am giong to start with the chassis...I want to bag it....and what not, so I will start there...

As far as pictures, we just got through moving, so our stuff is everywhere...I promise I will have pics soon...Her camera won't work with the computer I am using(it is my roomates) so, I need to install the program on my computer, once I get it up and running...

dude! really! wtf is your problem, you think you can come onto this board, rave about a 2wd blazer you bought and say your going to post pictures....and then say your computer a piece and won't work. Some one ban this poser till he can prove himself worthy of this board. J/K


I guess we'll be waiting till you post the photos.........

It's now 5:30 am, over 24 hours later......

Where's the pics.....is this becoming a ghost thread?

Maybe he doesn't want to play anymore, or just drawing our suspense....

Give him a break, I know I have promised pictures before and it sometimes takes awhile for me to deliver (it's a character fault of mine). In the mean time here's a picture of a blazer I saw at a car show to hold you over (buying you some time, Trifelynn...).

Nice color, great craftsmanship, it wins alot of trailered classes, but I would have done it differently (I shouldn't even say that given the crap that's not right with mine, but it is only an opinion).

It also has leaf springs in the rear... I'd still take it if offered!

The same couple also owns this 69 C10.

Okay, Trife, this should keep 'em busy for about 10 minutes, TAKE some pics quick!!!

Hey guys....

sorry...

going through some problems on the home front....

so this is the first time I have logged on in a couple of days...

the pics are taken....I swear, I just need to install the program that transfers the pics from the "el-cheapo" digital camera to the computer...
The computer I am using(still) is my roomates, and he doesnt have a program to transfer the pics over....and I don't want to install it, because this is a "gaming computer" I promise pictures to come...

I will say this though, I have mapped out my plan of action...

first will come taking it completely apart at the on base mechanics shop
then diong the suspension and chassis...powder coating and what-not, which will include bags I am still undecided if I want to notch the frame....

then I have been talked into a 700R4 instead of a TH400 by a tranny guy, he says they are more fun to drive and will get better gas mileage with the overdrive....so, I will get the motor and tranny all hooked up...and then work the body back together, which will include a 67 front end....and then all the little things...just thought I would tide you over with a plan of action, since I can't produce pictures yet

sorry...they will be short to follow...
