Re: New from Austin, TX
Welcome from a fellow blazer owner.
My brother lives in Leander. That's a nice area down there.

Re: New from Austin, TX
leander is a short drive from my house. in fact, the guy that i work on my cars with (more accurately...that's teaching me how to work on cars) is up that way.
i just looked through your build post of that 2wd blazer and it made me sick to my stomach...i must have jealousy issues... you've pretty much made my dream vehicle. i dont have the skills or the money!!

Re: New from Austin, TX

Keep your eyes peeled for this monte. It's my brother's high school car that I LS swapped for him a few years back. I think he still has the Wisconsin tags on it. Runs pretty good. He lives about 5 mins from the HEB in Leander.

Re: New from Austin, TX
man, that car is awesome! i'll definitely be on the look out for it.
i'm a fan of the "LS swap". this is my 63 galaxie...has an LM7 in it with a 4l60e. it's been my work in progress for several years now.
