Default Dutchie with blazer

Hi guys,

I'm Ronald, coming from the Netherlands. I recently got a '93 T10 Blazer and am really proud of it, however i would like to roughen up its look so there are some points i would like to change. I i changed it into a project which i want to complete before i have my drivers license (am working on it), the following i want/need to do:
  • clean it
  • check windows (creaking a little)
  • door right front opens troublesome
  • drivers seat does not adjust smoothly
  • lock rear left troublesome
  • little slack in steering
  • left horn button does not function
  • fix license plate on front
  • take off the winch (probably a bumper replacement)
  • remove a sticker on the back window
  • few minor interior fixes (loose panels)
  • touch up/redo paint job
  • fix the outer window seal
  • replace rear lift-struts
  • fix rust on bearing arm of the spare wheel
  • add sunvisor
  • replace grille
  • grille + bushguard
  • add lights on the roof
its a long list but its not as bad as it looks, it runs smoothly and has a LOT of power in it. I joined here hoping to get to know more about my car and be able to do repairs and changes myself to keep the costs down. If there is interest and if its allowed i might make a log with my 'project' showing you the focus points of the current stage.

And of course so:
front:

back:

inside:

It is definitely allowed. We have a section just for that - the 'Builds' section, so feel free to start a thread in it and track your progress.
By the way, if you had not included the pictures, I almost would not have believed you are Dutch. Your English is better than than some Americans I know.

It had the winch installed when you bought it? Someone was really serious about having that in there. I agree, it looks a little rough, but it's still neat to have it.
