After receiving a few helpful tips from this site I decided to become a member. I purchased a 1992 S-10 Blazer from an owner who had little love for it. Every issue that arose had been worked around instead of fixed. It was sold to me for 300 with the parting words "its ready for the junkyard", but I refuse to believe that. One step at a time I plan on restoring it back to its former glory

 

i just joined this forum for the same reason.i paid a bit more i have replaced a lot including doors but its coming together nicely I wouldn't mind hearing feedback cause this is my first vehicle and would like to know what you run into.

 

Welcome to the forum.

 

Thank you! Well, The lights on my gauges don't work except for one bulb, so its very dim. I've heard these can be difficult so I'm waiting to do this for a while, the temp gauge doesn't work, passenger front window doesn't work, climate actuator doesn't work (stuck on floor vents) I've got a 2ft wide hole in the passenger side floor under the carpet, the doors are falling off and 30% gone due to rust. I'm leaking tranny fluid somewhere, shocks are in need of replacement badly, and the brakes are only at half pedal, and I'm leaking fluid, even though I can't seem to find where from and lastly I need to replace the spark plugs and adjust the timing. In th past 2 weeks I've replaced the heater core (so much fun), installed new exhaust, replaced the transmission oil pan and filter ( sooooooo much fun! ) and replaced the heater blower fan. I've got 184xxx miles and I hope to make it 300xxx no matter what she throws at me. Hehehe.
