Re: Finished 1972 Blazer Build

Thanks guys yea I'll post up some more pics when I find them. I own my own business which sells lawnmower parts so we are close in the winter which gives me time to work on fun things like this. Seemed long to me as I thought I was just going to put paint on it and drive it... We all know how that goes. ha
