ya last night i got in an accident with my 1997 blazer. i went into the ditch hit the front it turned me around slamed the back left then fliped and ended up on the wheels with my nose to the ditch. over all there is a lot of damage to the back(windows broken,tailgate smashed, back left panel smushed). and i think there is only a bit to the front. be barring and twist to the frame i was hopeing to fix it all my self because i dont have and collision insurance so they wont fix it. what my question is how hard is it for a person to do body work it these trucks. ie: get the panels remove the damaged panels, put panels back on.

Really is just like any other newer vehicle. It all comes down to skill and experience. If the body is tweaked, you likely will end up putting more money into it than it is worth.

Glad you're alright!
I think LMC truck or JC Whitney probably has them.

What format are they in? Are you using an outside photo host (photobucket) or trying to upload them?
