Re: Teeitup's build I guess!!!!!!

New grill insert? Didn't see anything wrong with the old one.....wanna part with it?

Project looks GREAT! Wish I could take mine down that far. Only been working on what I can without a total teardown so far. Hopefully body off this winter so I can complete the chassis. Dana 60 front, cross over steering, box the frame rails, custom bumpers, 4 link front and rear.....I'm obviously going a different direction than you are but always great to see someone keep it stock!

Re: Teeitup's build I guess!!!!!!

Hauled it home, there are a couple things I'm not real happy about that he did but all in all a decent job. I'll get pics posted soon. It will be awhile till I get to putting it all back together, hope to have it done by next summer. Thanks Randy

Re: Teeitup's build I guess!!!!!!

Truck looks great from here

But they normally do look better in pictures. Hope you get it straightened out to your satisfaction!

that experience of tearing apart all the trucks and blazers will definitely help come re-assembly. They come apart a lot faster than they go together though, don't they

It adds up in a real hurry.....that's for sure! For some really nice back panels get with board vendor truckseats. Or you can find them on sale through brother's or classic industries sometimes...

Re: Teeitup's build I guess!!!!!!

Thanks Jonathan

Everyone the blazer project has been put on hold, I've finally talked my wife into letting me build a 36x44 garage, to mess with my toys in and also finally be able to part out some trucks inside, that will be different after doing it outside all these years

Thanks Randy

Congrats on the garage Randy. Whatever your not happy with on the blazer shouldn't be too bad. Solid white color is easy to match.

Re: Teeitup's build I guess!!!!!!

Thanks Keith

Mike, I'll pm you when we start, I know there will be plenty of beer around here,

Thanks Chuck. The bodyman didn't do a very good job on rockers so I'm going to have to have them taken off and new ones put on, he got in a hurry I think

Thanks Dale99, thats what I'm thinking

Thanks Ray, thats what I told my wife

Thanks Jud, going to take up most of the big dog pen, between blacksmith shop and house garage. I'm going to keep the rocked area inside the privacy fence for my trailer, extra parts and any other trucks I may find.

I'm not going to be able to finish it all inside right now (not enough money), just getting a shell, doors, electrical, and concrete. I have a construction buddy who is only charging me $1000 to build the building (he actually works for me part time at golf course), and a electrician buddy doing electrical for beer (he is a golf buddy). Another buddy giving me a break on concrete work. And another guy is putting in garage doors. Lucky my wife has a good job!!! I'm hoping the weather gets decent in Jan so we can get started on it

Thanks guys, Randy
