so just thought id throw a couple picturs of my new dd beater blazer on here so we can track progress or added damage.....we will see what happens. it is considered totalled cause the frame is a little bit bent on the front section but its less bent than when i first got it, did the tow strap tug style straightening yesterday with ittybittyjeep and his tow rig got most of the bend out but still has some bend left   |

scored some new wheels n tires for it today, 35x14.5x16 super swamper radials and when i say scord i mean it..... $200 bucks!!! but 2 tires not so great other 2 have 75-80% tread left. also picked up and installed doors today, didnt get around to puttin the fenders and hood on, too hot and im too tired, also picked up new grille and lower valance. still lookin for a power tailgate for a decent price thoughi thought that 350 is a bit much for a gate, i was thinkin a little more around 150 or less so if anyone knows of anything  |
