Tell the world a little bit about your vehicle
I bought this truck in January of 2010. It came in primer. I call it the Blimmy because it is a Gmc Jimmy that has a Blazer grille. I was never prepared for the craziness that I found underneath the primer including but not limited to, body panels that did not come on the truck originally, very cheap looking flame graphics, a 4 inch thick bondo job to cover a dent, the original paint covered by metallic blue paint with no clear coat, several rust spots. This was fixed however, by my uncle and I who work at a classic car restoration shop. It makes me sad when I see blazers driving around with holes that make the truck look like swiss cheese, so I thought it would be nice to fix that up. We cut out the rust, made several patches, and painted it. I am so happy with the transformation. Not bad for a girl eh?
