Alright! Uploaded pics from last night that i took with a real camera. Not a cell phone camera.
Things shes done since Ive had the truck that I cant stand but Ill have to deal with for now. Bed liner below the body line. Was done well but I think it looks like crap. I think the all red looked nice. Replaced the awesome tires I had with those junk BFG's AND the white walls are out... Ugly. Removed the roof rack lights grrr :x Painted the chevy emblem in the steering wheel (should be able to get it out with some brake clean. DESTROYED the drivers side inner door panel. I mean. It most likely needs to be replaced. She slammed the back glass and shattered it. She had it replaced but it doesnt seem to be sitting in the latch properly so I will have to adjust that. Umm... theres a bunch more but Ill have to get into it this weekend. Good stuff. New drive shaft U joints, heater core was just replaced, front end was done about 20k miles ago. (including ball joints and steering components.) Tires have about 70% tread life. Pics! ^^^ STRAIGHT FRAME!!!!! ^^^^ ^^^Core support pushed back... I actually think the body lift saved the frame because it allowed the core support to move. |

Put plates on the truck and took it to my body guy. Says he's got a friend that's really slow right now but does good work and that he should be coming by the shop this week. So I'm going to leave the truck there for the week and see how much they say!
He also said he's got a totaled out 4dr blazer that he can give me the front clip parts over for cheap!!!!!! Woooo! This is coming together nicely!!!! |

OKAY! little up date from this weekend.
Fixed the drivers door window motor and regulator. Cleaned all the glass because it had the "smokers haze" on the inside... Yuck. Began to clean the rest of the inside of the truck but realized that if its going for paint. Its going to be a mess. So Ill just finish cleaning after! And the biggest news! I went to "Harry's YOU PULL IT!" In hazelton PA today and picked up 95% of the sheet metal I need to fix the truck Passenger side fender Hood Core support Head light buckets grille with corner markers Cowl ferring stock air box for 160 bucks..................................................... Im going to try and hang everything this week because its supposed to be so nice out! Then shes off to paint! |

I know.... It needs a lot more time and a bunch more money. Once the blazer is done and the s10 is sold then it's all hands on the deuce.
