Re: starting my build on a 1969 blazer cst

Great start, power trains are the easy part. I would have much rather started with mechanicals then rust. Paid the same price for mine but, she was very very rusty lol

Im in to watching....is the lift staying or going?

It's looking good and looks like you got a lot done in the last few months!

I think most everyone on here has a Chevy addiction so you're right at home
