Looks great! On the front shock mounts did you just through bolt them?

This thing is literally going to be better than new

I feel your pain. I take it you don't work on a lot of older vehicles. The way the lines mount and are ran is common since they switched from mechanical brakes. LOL Wasn't until the mid/late 90's they started making line mounts bolt on to the frame. I have done dozens of vehicles like this.

Love it! It really is a fantastic looking Blazer.

The Blazer is looking great! Are you going to weigh it before you put the camper back on it? I would be curious as to how much your stripped down Blazer weighs versus the Camper mounted version.

Nice Blazer but what's up with that burgundy Westy?

I love dog dish hub caps.

Got some 35s installed. Forgot to put on the caps though. Slowly getting closer to ready for camping again.

Crazy how big those 35's look on that truck. I'm running a 35x11.5r20 on an f150 with a 2" level and they are only 2" bigger than the factory tires. Unless you're a car person, you probably wouldn't even notice I'm running an over size tire.

You should find a dark brown console to set off the tan and match the trim. Looks killer!

I worked at a Chevy dealership from ’76 to ‘85.
Worked on hundreds of steering columns and doors.
Your pictures are like a trip down memory lane.
Thanks for posting them

How was your canvas attached to the camper? Was it just rivets? If yes, was there anything in the seam of the canvas to help hold it?
