Well i decided to take the blazer to church one night and when i was coming home the tire did that....Half the tread came off and half stayed on...I drove it home like 4 miles bouncing in the rear but made it home and the tire is still holding air so i do not know wtf happen....

But i am going to try and sell the blazer because it is a gas hog....I should have invested the money into my luv instead of buying the blazer....But the k5 was runing driving 4x4 and i been working on the luv for so long already i got burned out...But now i am wanting the luv so bad right now!!

so i wanna get the luv running...buy some racing seats and get this thing on the road already lol! 8)

hell yea man! i was just looking at a pair of seats out of a newer impreza XD my driver seat has 275,000 miles of wear on the springs. time for an upgrade on mine too.

dang when they say "grabber" green they mean it. it grabs yer eyes right outta your head XD cant not look at it.

dont sweat it, when i got my luv the bed was full of trash the cylinder head and ALL the upper engine parts were in and under the trash... that was a fun day of sifting. and it had issues the first few months i had it and i was SO close to selling it.. im glad i didnt XD i love that little truck. worth fixing up for sure

Well once this blazer sells i am hoping to buy 2 racing seats and maybe some harness for the hell of it.
I would like to throw some 31/10.50/r15 bfg a/t tires on the luv also

These are the seats i am looking at droping into the luv.

dang those are pretty nice for that price!
those would make excellent rally and drift seats as well :lol:
color match to the interior
$60 a piece for 4pt harnesses sounds pretty good to me lol $120 a pair for the peace of mind if a rollover ever ends up happening!

decided im keeping my 4wd. but still lowering it a bit. coilsprings up front and bags in the back... idk something different. 4wd minitruck would be something aa lil different at a show and that setup would be great for my mountain road rally expeditions and daily driving lol

how has the progress on yours come? get anything else done

No i have not done anything to the luv i got a friend who is going to come over somtime around the 11th to put the motor in and get it running....Once that is done i just need to get the money for tax/title/licence. Then get tires/seats and i will be good to go.

Right now i need to bolt motor to tranny,hook up start,fuel pump,carb, exhaust and battery then it should run.

so something frontwheel drive and honda made lol
if your gonna go for an import car like that... look into mazda rx7 (rotary, rwd), nissan 240sx (rwd), Honda civic, integra & prelude (all 3 fwd) maybe the 90's subaru imprezas? still had the badass motors,awd option, and similar body just a bit lighter weight.

I just like the 2 door integra and the civic si but they get stolen all the time.....I would not mind a 3rd gen camaro with a 350 or 383....I use to have a 1984 t top camaro with a 350 in it.

But i do like the rx7 and i love toyta supra but those are higher priced cars...My main goal is to get the luv running,seats,and tires then but either.... a harley or an import....Because if i get a honda i can find b18, b16 and k seriese parts easy.

Well the blazer should be sold tomarrow!!!!!!!!! If this guy follows through i will be so happy!

The luv will be geting some nice upgrades! including the following!


UPGRADES:

3 inch body lift.
31/10.50/R15 (maybe 32s if i can fit them).
Header.
Shocks.
Racing seats.
Sound system.

Also looking towards:

Brakes.
Wheel cylinders.
Other things that might need to be replaced.

I want this luv to run/drive like new so i want to get all this stuff done i will be using it as a daily driver and a little toy when i feel the urge to go mudding....(i got full access to 270 acre of land that has 2 ponds next to each other and is always wet and muddy....)

SO I WILL KEEP YOU UPDATED ALL THIS SHOULD HAPPEN IN THE NEXT 2 weeks.

hell yeah! sounds like fun
i am still considering buying some land out in SD or Wyoming and making myself a personal motocross track and some 4x4 trails and calling myself set for a while.
270 acres to tear up would be great!
hell see if you can find some coilovers and fab up a suspension lift and say screw the body lift?
