http://www.sfxperformance.com/parts/TRX50225.htm


its going to come black and im going to paint it green instead of the chrome cause i feel the chrome looks kind of cheap...

 

Looking good, can't wait to see it all finished.

 

got my grille in yesterday!
looks great
they didnt have any black paintable ones in stock so i just got the chrome and it looks just like in that picture

 

everything on this thread is...awesome....

 

Makes me sad that it's not done yet. I think I am going to order some parts to make up a universal joint steering shaft. The rubber on my shaft is all broken and leaks. Instead of messing with a stock piece, I want to go with something cleaner. Other than that I haven't done anything with it. I just need to finish installing the new steering gear box and pitman arm. Then I will put the front fenders and core support on. Here are a couple pics of my fenders after powder coating them. Plan on doing the hood as well. Hopefully it works out as nice as the fenders.

 

hehe i like that second picture shows how clean of a paintjob that is
but i quit my job and my last day is wednesday so i might be able to work on my truck a bit more lol
hopefully get it done just in time for winter to come around...
kinda sucky but whatever
im just trying to set up my relocated oil filter right now
the tubing that they gave me in the box with my kit was too short to reach anywhere that the filter could sit without being in the way so im going to have to grab longer tubing for it

 

i have a 78 thunderbird with a clevland 351... someday i hope to do something to that engine like what you guys have done to yours...

 

hehe thanks tay
but u can do anything if u put your mind to it!

so anyways i quit my job at OK Tire so now i have gobs of time to work on the ol' blazer!
its been coming along quite well too
this is what ive done as of late
i put the whole interior back together
both doors on
remote oil filter system on
heater box on
removed the gas lines because i am going to get a fuel tank out of a carbed blazer that wont have the fuel pump built in
and thats pretty much it in a couple days
ill keep ya postedd!

 

So now you have the time, but what about some ca$h moniez? When will you be painting it? I've done a couple things on mine as well, but nothing worthy of pics yet.

 

well ive put about 8000 in so far and i dont really need any parts to finish it but if something does come up my dad will lend me some loot
its far from paint still unfortunately
im going to finish up the engine before i put the front clip back on
ive been having trouble finding brackets to put my alternator and power steering on
but i'll figure it out
