Sorry to hear about the loss of your truck but glad to hear everybody was ok. Really that is all that matters in the end. Good luck with the ticket, I say fight it and good luck with whatever you choose to replace your truck.

Well thanks to the help of BlueBlazer1982 i have decided on what my next vehicle is going to be. It's going to be a K5 Blazer between the years of 1982 and 1991, with the 6.2L diesel. Also the 4-speed automatic transmission unless i can find a manual. Im going to be looking for one somewhere in the south carolina region because i want to avoid body rust. If anyone wants to help me on my search please do, im not looking for anything special yet. I'll make it special myself lol. I just want a very clean truck, preferably red, black, gunmetal, or orange. Any help in the Search would be wonderful!

Derek. Thanks for all the posting you did in this thread. Very helpful.

You have inspired me to consider herculiner my ZR2 also.

Are you selling any parts from your Blazer still? I need two ZR2 wheel caps.

Hey guys, its been forever since I've posted on this thread but i thought i might give you some pictures of the accident finally. So here ya go.




This is what it looked like right before i wrecked it.


Pretty sad thinking back on it now, i put a whole lot of work into that thing for it to just be smashed like that.


Like MTopper said i did get a jeep not a K5 like i was saying. Heres a pic of my jeep.


I have since sold that jeep and bought a little car for gas mileage sake.

I don't regret buying this little toy it is fast and has a 6-speed manual.

My other toy in addition to the VW is a '99 Yamaha YZF-R6


I might start getting a little more involved in the forum again just because this is one of the best ones out there. Everyone is nice and helpful.

Yea it was a real shame to see it go, i thought about trying to fix it up, but with the frame damaged and all i didn't really see it being worth it.
