Oh wow congrats on your house though good to hear its payed off.

I been wonder where the hell you have been, my blazer is going into the shop in a week or so i found an off road shop up in butler county and they do everything i am having them paint it Dark Ming metallic Blue like the new Trailblazers and there also installing 3" Body lift and 5" Trail-master Suspension lift, And making Custom rear and front bumper's and hoping to get a nice set a Pro comp wheels wrapped in 35" Buck shot mudders.

Yeah i was planning on doing the paint my self but i have never done that type of thing before and i kinda got second thoughts on ****ing it up lol, So i figured i will get it done right from a very recommended shop.

Making about 4k a month now so things are going good for now "Knock on Wood" and after this i am looking for a nice K5 M1009 and doing the whole military thing with it.

And i cant wait to see your blazer with SFA swap and v8

 

Well i decided to take her to a body shop and finish her off and paint her so its done right i really don't wanna screw it up let ya know what its going to cost

 

Ok Well i am still undecided on the paint i really don't wanna go back to the original color something that would be nice and ok to cover up scratches here and there since i will be using it off road. Any tips or suggestions would be appreciated i know i been beating around the bush with this but i wanna make sure i chose the right color.

 

i personally like the color white but it does show every bit of mud and road grime possible. it didn't show scratches on my cavalier which was nice because i was in high school and got door dinged like no other.

 

i was thinking of a silver like this

 

A) where is that picture from?
B) if you know the person who owns them, i hate them.

it'd be different but not my taste

 

i Googled Chevy silver haha, and yeah it would be different. and also look good with mud on it

 

bah tm 5" lift SFA is cheaper think I have $500 wrapped up in mine . . .TY craigslist!(still need brake lines and shocks think that about covers everything) I never even thought about doing bodywork or painting before I started on mine what better time to learn than on your baby where you are going to be the most critical eye there is? Granted I ended up sanding down and fixing a cpl things repeatedly (you think it's good then you shoot primer and when it dries you spend about 10 minutes swearing cuz it's still not quite there lol) a small piece of advice . . . high build primer is your friend, patience and well planned and executed prep work is key without that it'll look like garbage with it it'll be something you proudly tell folks "I did it all myself!" one last tip don't cheap out on the rust reformer garbage spend the cash on por-15 it will be money well spent!

 

Well i started painting my self with spray pain i think its turning out ok for the cheapness of the paint job lol

Fenders are done and hood still needs clear coat
