Default Getting Back to Square Bodies

Getting back into square bodies. I have mainly ran 1970, 1971 and 1972s. I could not pass up this project. It has a pretty good starting point and the price was a steal! I have put quite a few miles on it without doing anything to it. My boys are exited about working on it. They have named it Deadpool. With the black and white exterior and red interior.

Nice! I've owned more square bodies than I can remember, plus a 71 and some newer trucks, but I've always had a "thing" for the square Blazers, especially the full convertibles. Should be a fun project!

I had a discussion with a friend of mine a year or so ago. He said that there were some Blazers after 1972 that were full convertibles. I had looked, but was unable to confirm. I might end up down that rabbit hole.

Here's a REALLY old picture of my 74. The tarp was my "tent", lol.

I have had to tarp my '70 more than one occasion. It always seemed nice to take off the the top, then never fails. Rain.
