Exterior Complete

Well gents its been a long time since I have posted here, but I thought I would show you what she looks like now... I got a new tailgate and tweaked, body filled, paintine and installed it..

So here are some pics of the project...

Now some flexy pics for ya...

Even got some good clearance up front...

So now for the interior. I need to make some templates for the interior panles and complete the inside.. Hope you guys enjoy...

Damn, love that paint job!

Funny, was just thinking about your truck.

 

[Izzy]

Thanks AJM BLAZER.. Its been awhile in the works and the looks now are well worth the time that it has taken even though its not complete..

 

[ryoken]

nice work Izzy!

 

[Craig Artzner]

Nice!

 

[Izzy]

Thank You guys... The dash looks great but its time for a total interior redoo... I might just wait for a couple years in order to do that since I will be doing a total frame off in about that time.. That is when I retire from the Air force and I should have plenty of time to do the job right..

You can tell alot love went into that blazer! I look forward to the day that I get to do a frame off resto with my baby! Kudos to the amazing work you have done its a beaut!

 

[ThaMule]

Still looking good! Frame off resto is what I am planning as well but I aint no where near retirement! HAHA

 

[Craig Artzner]

I aint no where near retirement! HAHA

What? I thought you Iraqi contractors made killer loot from what I've heard. If you invest it the right way you could retire...

 

[Izzy]

Hey Mule... How You like the 454/350 Combo? I have a running 454 sittin in storage right now waiting till I get some money to rebuild.. Is it pretty easy to do the engine swap? Right now its got a 350/350 in it..

I think most of us have huge trust funds sitting in our driveways...

I gotta say it came out very nice. The white and red combo is a good color for that truck. Can't wait to see more of this work. Plus, you showed me most of what I needed to know to get mine finally painted, after I buy a bunch of sheetmetal to fill in the cancer.
