CT Blazer 1970 K5 4WD CST

First Blazer I’ve owned and first restoration I have undertaken. Nervous about some of it but this website has been great for info so I figured I would document all of this build in case it helps somebody else in the future watching my mistakes, struggles, and progress. Hoping to finish this frameoff from start to finish within a year. Haha. My background is in electrical and that is the only part of this job that I am 100% confident in my abilities. Everything else will be on a learning curve for me. Hope you find this string either interesting, helpful or entertaining.
