I bought a '90 Blazer in March this year and I've only put 20 miles on it since then!
I figured I'd restore it before I drove it but I didn't expect it to take this long. The bodywork ( rust removal ) is almost complete and the paint should begin next week. I figure that after it's painted it will still take another month to put it all together.
Here are a few progress pics...it was originally red and black and will be solid black when it's finished.

Dunno, think I might want it all red. That would surely be a grabber!

Nice truck man. I've always been kind of a fan of the big blazers.

Another progress update.
Eventually I'll have to put all the pics in an album of some sort.

Awesome truck, keep it up. I'd keep it red and black if I were you, but that's your call.

Lookin' good Chevy, I gotta agree with everyone else though I would leave it two tone. As a matter of fact I would do a kandi red and kandi black pearl!

LOL, does Chevy Lover even remotely resemble someone who would paint their truck a candy color? He's like Chuck Norris' bigger, badder, cooler uncle who taught him everything he knows.
