91 K5 -Procrastination Build - bikini top!

What are your plans for the old cage that's currently in the truck? How much head clearance does it give you?

 

[nvrenuf]

I've already cut the old one out, plans are to try and use pieces of it as braces in the new cage. Headroom was the whole problem with it, I could touch my head to the halo without stretching. I was really afraid of getting hurt while wheeling.

Man you know your Blazers. Thanks!

 

[nvrenuf]

If only there was money in it....

 

[83ChevyK5Blazer]

so.... any updates yet?

 

[nvrenuf]

Yeah...

We had a horse show, didn't do very well, the horse looks like he's hurt his hip so we'll be taking him to the chiropractor and/or the vet this weekend.

We saw the new Avengers movie, it was pretty good.

My oldest daughter got her drivers license so I'm a nervous wreck.

My younger daughter thinks her sister's drivers license is the key to both of their freedom.

Went to my daughters high school band concert tonight, it was good.

I finally got the bad stumble in the Jeep fixed! After installing a crank sensor, cam sensor, plugs and coil pack I figured out the crank sensor I installed first was defective, replacing it (again) fixed it.





Oh, if you're wondering about the Blazer I got the floor plates and rear half cage kit but haven't done sh!t with them.

 

[83ChevyK5Blazer]

sounds like a long month, what rig did you pick up for the oldest?

 

[nvrenuf]

Man, it never stops at my house, it's just faster and busier every week.

We bought her a '98 2wd Tacoma, 4cyl auto. It's an absolute cream puff, looks like new on the inside and pretty dang good outside. She wants a lifted whatever that looks cool but I'm happy with a simple, slow little truck that'll haul all her horse junk.

 

[83ChevyK5Blazer]

can she pull her horse trailer with it? and you can't go wrong with a 4 banger for a 16 yr old.

 

[nvrenuf]

The trailer isn't big but I still think it's probably too much for the Taco. I'm not sure if I'm ready for her to pull it with the Dodge either.

I saw your neighbor was chopping trees and stuff. You should have unleashed your herd of goats!

Horses huh? It's a wonder you can afford a Blazer.

[nvrenuf]

Just one horse but he's proven to be more than enough. People think boats are expensive but they don't eat all year long.

 

[83ChevyK5Blazer]

it was us cutting, we took 4 from the front and 5 from the back. my old nieghbor I offered my goats to, he has copd and doesn't do lawn stuff in summer.

 

[83ChevyK5Blazer]

did y'all go up to the new place in lucedale yesterday?

 

[nvrenuf]

At the last minute we decided not to but a friend went and said that NOBODY showed.

 

[83ChevyK5Blazer]

hmmm that. could. either be.a good thing or a bad one. any word on of it looks fun?

He really didn't say because he was ranting about the drive and sitting there for an hour and a half while no one else showed. I'll ask him and see if the big itself is worth playing in.

Did you ever get the new cage installed? I've been wanting to do a cage/roll bar setup on my full vert conversion. I'm still trying to get everything back together after the fresh paint. It's more of a mall cruiser now, but I want a roll bar with a bikini top to go on it when I go out in her.

I was surfing c-list today and thought to myself, this truck looks really familiar for some reason...

 

[1987cut]

That's me! I'm about 50 miles north of New Orleans
