Title: Newbie From TN
Post by: LUV2XCLR8 on August 01, 2009, 07:42:01 am: I have known Chris for about 2-3 years but am a 67-72 guy so
I never came over here that much. Well things have changed.
(No I did not leave my Baby) I am heading to LA next Friday to
trade for an 81 Blazer and will be driving it back that weekend.
It needs TLC, but I think it is OEM paint and will be my DAILY.

I have Named her "Glacier" because of the Blue & White colors.

Post by: LUV2XCLR8 on August 02, 2009, 09:45:23 am: Thanks for the Welcomes. No plans right now except
mechanical issues that may arise while driving it. I'm
in deep on my 72 and have no $ to play with the 81.

The fangs are kinda growing on me. (Remember that
big Muppet character that was named "Sweetums")
