Default new guy from Eastern Ontario, Canada

Hi, i'm always interested in any truck stuff but especially the classic Blazer/Jimmy's. I have a white 91 Blazer Silverado (the last of the REAL ones), haha, sorry lil blazer people. Had it since 99, only sees 2nd vehicle/hunt camp/plow truck duty so pretty low KMs on it. I would love to have a serious resto done on it but sorry to say any spare cash goes to buffing up the 09 Sierra. It looks pretty good still from 20' away, basically stock, 5.7l with chip, K&N filter, sits on heavy duty stock 3 leaf front packs with quad shock set. Rear packs have been replaced and it is time for the fronts. Tires are BFG 33" 12s
I have never had the top off but maybe this summer.
My grandfather had a 75 Jimmy full convertible and one day would love to find one like it.
One thing for sure, always have guys come up and say, "used to have one, wish i still did"
cheers from Jim in Trenton, Ontario, Canada

Default check the Blazer in "Jaws"

hey, no way man,, 73 - 75 still offered the full convertible version, check out Sherrif Brody with a basic 2 tone Blazer convert in the first "Jaws".

There's no easier boss upgrade than adding 33s to a stock 73 - 91 Blazer/Jimmy/burban 1500
course, 3.73 gears, posi and h/d front end help justify... and on a 70s vintage, well that is the toughest look going..
cheers
