Default New from Poland :)

Hi
My name is Michał, I come from Poland, I live in its capital, Warsaw. I've been driving the 1999 Blazer proudly for about two years. I bought it in a terrible condition, but it's better. I hope that thanks to Blazerforum I will be able to make new contacts and solve technical problems that plague my car. Sorry for the spelling, but I use the translator.
Best wishes

Welcome, Blacha. I don't use this forum much but when I do I find success. There is good help here without criticism. How did your Blazer get to Poland?

Walleye Hunter Well, I bought it from the man who brought it from Germany. in Germany, Blazers were sold by Chevrolet dealers, there are quite a few of them in Europe. I meet myself not often on the road, but it does happen, for example I passed Blazer two days ago. Every time I meet Blazer, the drivers greet each other with their hands and blinking lights. It's nice because basically this car is a bit exotic in Poland.

GeorgeLG thanks for the kind words, Ukraine is a beautiful country, I personally have a few friends from Ukraine. I also visited this country three times, unfortunately I only got to Lviv ...

Tom A, This is one of the pictures of my blazer (I don't know if I added it right)
It's basically a serial model, I put wheel spacers on it to improve handling. When I bought it, it was on steel rims, the ones in the photo I bought at a scrap yard (believe me, such things at the Polish junkyard
The blazer was in very bad shape ... it had leaks, the frame was rusty, a lot of things didn't work. I removed some of the faults myself, and my colleagues helped the rest. Among other things, sandblasting of the frame and anti-corrosion protection were performed. Transfer case seal, differential seal, intake manifold seal, air conditioning repair, sunroof and rear wiper mechanism repair. I also repaired the auto-folding mirrors, replaced the radiator and many other small things ...
I recently replaced the hub of the left front wheel.
I still have a lot of work to do, as over time 4wd service appears, I think that the wiring harness is to blame because I replaced all speed sensors with new ones.
