Re: Awesome

- I have been working on another project - but it is nice to see a LOT of people working on their blazers...

There is a blazer project about 2 hours from me for sale - but I won't even consider another project until I get at least one done (enough)...

Keep up the good work guys!

Re: Awesome

Yep, for some reason seeing all the activity on the board has made me want to get out and work on mine as well so that's what i've been doing, working on it!

Re: Awesome

Yep, this is a great group and very awesome to see new K5 owners showing up. Around here K5's and Suburbans are pretty rare. I know of only a couple Suburbans and maybe 3 other K5's. Haven't seen any K5's or Suburubans on the road in more than a year locally so it always makes me happy to see new board members show up on the board to know there are still some elsewhere.

Re: Awesome

I agree 100% this Blazer group is a smaller group but has a lot of knowledge and share it. I had been slacking on my Blazer but I am full of energy again, and have added a few things to my build that without this board I would have never even thought of! So thanks to all the blazer guys here! A very helpful bunch of guys!
