Owner Comments:
My name is Clay Cole, I
have owned my 82 Blazer for about 5 years off and on. When I purchased it, it
was completely trashed, but it only had 2 owners. I put new brakes all
around and decided I didn't want to work on it anymore. I Worked on it for a
little while longer and then sold it to a buddy. He put a fresh 305 in it and
redid the interior and added a new stereo system...it looked so good I bought it
back from him and have had it ever since. I also found out it was the last year
they made the 2 wheel drive Blazer. Since then, I have installed a 700r4
transmission, a fresh rebuilt rear end with 3.08 gears, new stock 15x7 Rally
wheels with 265R15's in the front and 15x8 Rally wheels with 295/50R15's out the
back. I have cut the springs in front and taken out a leaf in the back to give
it a better stance. I've had numerous carburetor problems since, but hope the
fix those soon with all the stuff I have learned on your site. Your site has
really given me the confidence to dig in and tear things apart. I get them back
together too!
