Just was thinking about mine and had to laugh about all of the different parts from other trucks mine has, if someone else other than me owned it and took it to the shop or went to Autozone for repair and replacement parts they'd be mad at the PO.

Starting with a 70K5

1989 K2500 intake TB sensors etc.
1990 Ironc 350 TPI cylinder heads (for spark plugs)
1975 K5 Blazer front end with disc brakes
1971 Master cylinder to work with the disc brakes
rear backing plates from a Heavy Half 77 with 2.5"W X 11" drums
and alot of other fabricated items that cannot be store bought only fabricated.

That's why you got to love these old Blazers though alot of late model parts can be swaped as upgrades, we have the sweetest body style and can bolt on late model upgrades so we can have cake and eat it..LOL
