Default It's finished! I'm on the road.

11 months ago I bought a '90 blazer to restore. It is now mechanically sound and all the rust has been removed. I did a complete colour change, replaced all the body and window seals and any interior parts that were worn.
I finished it late last night and spent the day driving today.
I am a very happy man.
I'll have to do a write up on it and link to a photo album sometime.

Nah, I just figured I'd park the wrong way, like the cop that I pulled in front of.

Looks and drives like new.
Here's a pic when I bought it, one photo shopped of the concept and then one of the completed project.

I like the original paint scheme, but the finished product looks great too. Now you just got to get some meaty AT or MT tires on it. I think the Toyo Open Country MT's or some mickey thompson's would look awesome on it.
