Kris, congrats.

A guy I've met a few times locally has a blazer in that body style... he hangs out over on 67-72chevytrucks.com . A lot of the guys over there have those, might be a good palce for you to look for information... but you will have to look for it as they keep having issues with their search functions over there.

This is his(NuBomb) profile over there:

Anyway - maybe he can give you a few pointers on some information, he stays pretty busy so he might not get back with you right away.

Will you be putting those monster tires on the front or back?

If you put them on the front you should be able to crawl over downed logs, a few Volkswagens and break through snowdrifts.

If on the back you might be able to see downed logs, Volkswagens and snowdrifts.

Pretty nifty, especially for the price.


Word hard, play harder, enjoy life!

Hey Kris,
I just scrapped a 70 C10 that color. I have an ad in the swapmeet for some of the leftover parts if you're interested. Some of the parts include the complete front clip and bumper, doors, glass, the frame, etc. Let me know if you need anything,
