Got the rear glass installed and the drivers door handle and sport mirror installed. I’ve been chipping away at getting all the trim and everything back installed. Got the windshield in the other day. I went with a new one with the antenna in the glass.

Finished removing the last of the aftermarket stereo equipment and restored the kick panels to something at least closer to stock.

When I got the Blazer it had what I’m sure is a nice high-end stereo system installed. There were 3 big, heavy speaker boxes in the back, speakers in the kick panels and a 1600 watt Kenwood amp mounted under the drivers seat fed by a power cable that looks like it could supply a small city. As a result the back seat was inaccessible and the kick panel speakers were always getting kicked.:gr_grin: When I go after the dash pad I will install a new dash speaker and hook that to a simple AM/FM radio.

My truck died on me today while I was hauling leavers for my neighbor. Wouldn’t start up and I had gas pouring down the carburetor from a leak in a gasket. So I did what I thought was best and pulled the carb for a rebuild. I think I’m in over my head… :eek:
Oh well… I just hope it’s going back together correctly :rolleyes:

Three critical things... Don't mess with the float level unless you were having problems with it before. Don't mess with the adjustment screws unless you were having problems before. Any adjustment should be done very gently. Lots of carbs are ruined by screwing down the adjusting screws too tightly, ruining the seats. And damn, I forgot the third thing. I must be getting old...

Here is everything that I’m getting rid of. I have no idea what any of it’s worth.

The tall JL Audio speaker measures 19” tall x 11” wide x 5” deep. The two smaller boxes are 8.5” tall x 12” wide x 7” deep at bottom, reducing to 5” at top. These all are surprisingly heavy and seem very well made.

I’ll post this on the For Sale forum. Anybody who comes here to pick up will get a free Blazer ride, weather permitting. :D

Hey!!!!! That looks suspiciously EXACTLE like the valve cover swap I attempted for the second time last weekend. Oh, looking closer, neither set of yours are completely blackened with oil blow-by....
