Title: Members Blazers Nomination Thread
Post by: Captkaos on January 02, 2009, 07:15:32 pm: For February the Truck you nominate HAS to be a Blazer/Jimmy.

It doesn't have to be pretty, it doesn't have to be a show car, it just has to be a good picture. 3/4 shots are preferred and please, no people in the pics, unless it is a driving photo and they are IN the truck.

See our current 2009 calendar here for ideas:

Nominate away.

Post by: oldwhity on January 03, 2009, 04:07:56 pm: Those were nice Vile. Mine wasn't quite as nice as those. I was still building when I sold it.
Title: Re: Members Blazers Nomination Thread
Post by: VileZambonie on January 03, 2009, 04:12:07 pm: I sold the 88 (Bottom pic) for $8,000. That paid for half of my foundation for my garage. I bought the truck for $800 bucks from the original owner and redid the drivetrain and painted it. Rust free beautiful Blazers :( God I need another one!

Your screen name is ironic then.

And, it's obvious you don't live in Arizona or southern Texas. People down there bake in black cars.

Where'd you find that top? I'd buy a blazer if I could have that top on it, the hard top would never even be used, I'd throw it away. THAT is my perfect blazer, lift, tire size-wise.

Well that sucks :-\ I want a blazer but I want a way to ditch the hard top all together since I want it solely for the fact it's so open.

If you go to your nearest/best boat shop they can probably make you a nice top like the skyler for a lot less the buying a skyler. The quality will probably be better as well.

Post by: 85MudMonster on January 10, 2009, 03:59:30 pm: I vote for the green one with no motor posted by bfofish, cause it'd be nice to have a calander that was something other than just all nice vehicles, something where they're being worked on just like mine is...
Title: Re: Members Blazers Nomination Thread
