Washed mine and stopped to look at it found a broke front bumper support. Ive had this thing for 3 weeks and i keep finding things wrong with it! But it keeps me busy on my days off.

You would think so, but its possible. The only rattle I have in the jimmy is the over head console when the bass hits.

Every interior panel I went around and put sound deadening and that 1" thick by .5" wide foam strip. Took a half a day, but was well worth it.

CRAP! Blazer is dead again. Guess it wasn't the coil. Time to try my spare distributor - probably the HEI module ... so might as well just swap 'em out. It's quicker and easier. We'll see what happens ....

Got to haul my first load with it.
Wifes car decided to break a timing belt so got to rent a dolly from U-Haul..
Surprised how well it did.. acted like it wasn't there for the 20 mile trip home..

Went to the wreckers and picked up replacement parts for the rear wiper motor and the switch for the side view mirrors. Mirror switch changed and working like brand new. Wiper motor pending.

Next job. Next week. Tune up..plugs, wires, distributor cap/rotor/ coil and oil change. Air filter has already been done

regards to all

Waiting as patently as I can on a machine shop both my heads are at. Cant do much until thats back together and a few incidental fixes while its torn apart.
Once shes back home i have an intake and the passlock bypass for my alarm/starter sitting in a box waiting to be installed. Waiting sucks!
