Hi all.

I have a 1991 S10 Blazer Sport 4x4 4 door that I've had for 3 years and has been the most reliable truck ever. I don't have it anywhere near done but maybe some day. Basically, it's the most custom stock S10 Blazer that I know of.

I like to add factory options to my cars and trucks that they either never had or never could have but are just cool. I also use GM parts for those mods whenever I can.

Started with a running $400 SUV and ballooned from there. It was one of the first 4 doors ever built and I may have possibly seen it built as I found the order sheet with the build date on it and that day is the same day that I toured the Moraine Assembly plant in the 7th grade.

It's a mostly loaded 4.3 TBI truck with an automatic and 3:42 gears.

Since buying it, I've made the following modifications using parts from corresponding car/truck/van:

Exterior:
Third brake light: 1994 S10 Blazer
Hood strut: 1994 Olds Cutlass
Wheels/tires: 1993 GMC Jimmy 2WD
Rear window: 1993 GMC Typhoon
Spare tire carrier modified to hold HiLift Jack: 1994 GMC Jimmy

Interior:
Steering wheel: 1994 S10 Blazer
Gauge cluster: 1993 S10 Blazer - I did have a modified tach cluster from a 1988 Blazer in, but took it out.
Express Down front windows: 1995 Pontiac Bonneville
All-Window-Down - I tap the back two window switches and all 4 windows roll down by themselves: 1994 Olds Cutlass
Updated chime module with automatic locks that lock at 9MPH, turn signal chime if I leave my signal on too long: 1996 Olds Cutlass (my chime is a less annoying "ding, ding, ding" instead of the original "doooooooooooooooooot"
Overhead console: 1994 S10 Blazer
Homelink for above: 2000 Olds Bravada
Auto-dimming rear view mirror with compass/temp: 2003 Chevy Silverado
Remote Keyless Entry with illuminated entry and factory alarm: 1995 Pontiac Grand Prix
Leather power seats with power lumbar: 1993 S10 Blazer
Retained Accessory Power: 1995 Chevy Camaro
CD player modified for iPod AUX input: 1995 Buick Riviera
2 piece sunvisors with vanity mirrors: 1994 S10 Blazer
Cargo mat: 1993 Olds Bravada
Dome override switch: 1995 Pontiac TransSport
Window lockout switch: 1992 Olds 98
Glove box lock delete: 1999 GMC Jimmy

Under the hood:
Steering shaft: 1988 Jeep Cherokee

I have some more plans for it, but I'll need some rare parts to complete them.

Sorry for the novel...haha Here are some pics, not pretty but I went for functionality.










If there's any interest in my mods, I may add some write-ups. And if there's anyone near Austin, Texas that wants to hang out, I'm usually up for that.

 

Welcome from Utah.

 

Welcome from NY

you should join our 1st gen group there is a link in my signature

also Im interested into the jack in the ashtray would this work on a tape radio ? i still got my stock radio (sadly i never upgraded it yet)

 

Thanks. Joined the group as well.

Yes, xgiovannix12, it can be done very easily to a stock cassette deck. I like it, I can plug in my iPod and not have the looks ruined by an aftermarket deck, plus because it's stock, no one will steal it.

 

nice did you ever make a write up ? im interested
it would be nice till i can get me a pop out screen =)


Edit: we can talk about it more an other time ... its real late here 3:10 am imma hit the hay for tonight =P

 

Not my write-up, it's a friends'.

I like the write up man I might tackle this soon
thanks ~!

also the cd radio is it plug and play ? where did ya pull one from ?

 

It is for later models that had the CD player optional, in earlier models, you will have to change and rewire the connectors for it to the later style. Plus get an antenna cable adapter.

I got lucky and found this one in a 1995 Riviera at the junkyard for $25 and amazingly it works great. The Delco CD players, particularly the early ones like that, are hard to find in working condition.
