Update from bigdon-70blazer

Well hello forum after a long absence. I had a beautiful 1970 Blazer that this forum watched and helped me restore. It was a great starter rig, 57K original miles and just a little rust under the doors and front floor boards. It was an old farm truck and sat outside in southwest Kansas for 40 years. It was a solid all original truck. I did a total off frame restoration of it, changed to color and did what I call a stock restoration on it, that is fixed what needed fixed , replaced what needed replaced cleaned and painted the rest. It turned out great and I finished it some 5 years ago. I just recently sold it. Priced it to the wrong person, or right person however you are looking at it. Saw my wife and I at a local restaurant after eating, we were getting into it and the little lady said she had to have it! I was ready for a new project. So, with some surprising emotions, I left the old green Blazer go home with someone else. No body else has driven it since I finished it! They are extremely proud of it and I am glad. I want to thank all of you on this forum for all of the help and encouragement throughout the years. This forum was a great resource and very valuable to the project. I know I have been absent for some time and I am sorry I was not there for you when you needed me. I got busy with a new business adventure of my wife's and literally ran out of time. But with the Blazer done, I had no further questions. I am not a body guy or mechanic but am proud of my first project and believe it is time to move on to another dream car, a 1965 Impala convertible, which I got last week! I am going to be selling some parts so I will be frequenting the forum more often and will be glad to help anyone with questions. I left pic of the Blazer and two of my new ride!
