Got her home!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Ryanz · 02-14-2021, 11:53 PM

Got it in my possession today! Grinning ear to ear. It’s going to need lots of work to the body with rust through bottom of rear fenders, inner and outer rockers, cab supports, cab corners, etc. But, it really hasn’t been touched. All wiring in tact, signals, break lights, reverse lights, all works. Heater fan, everything. I’m just so impressed. The stamp # is from my transmission.

Excellent - may hit you up for questions, parts, etc. Would you just order new fenderside fenders or try patch these rear fenders yourself? I’m thinking for the time and energy we may be best to just replace.

Hi, another Saskatoon guy here. Is that a Canadian truck and where did you find it.

Yes, Canadian made (Oshawa). I was very lucky. Got chatting with a guy about his Blazer project, as I have one completed. I told him that I was looking for a 4x4 shortbox, he said ‘I may know of one. It’s my brother’s and it’s been sitting here for 7 years. He keeps talking about restoring but hasn’t moved on it yet.’

So, I pestered them for months until we were finally able to make a deal.
