    Get the young fella into it. Let him make a few mistakes and help him to figure out how to solve it. He will learn more from a mistake than watching the best at work. Much respect

    I wish I had that much help and space when I did mine. Pulled the body of my 79 K5 in my 2 car garage by my self using stacks of cinderblock, 4x4 post and a floor jack.

    It's good seeing other people doing this. It's a family tradition in our family. Oh that was my dad it was his two oldest Brothers I helped him because they were thirty years older than he was. My dad and I built a 68 Chevy. Each of my boys had their projects.

      Occasionally I find somebody of the younger generation that is actually doing something like this. When I do run across somebody like that I encourage him or sometime her as much as I can. We all should

    My first blazer was an 84 350 3 speed. Then I had an 89 and my current one is a 71. I can tell you that complete toplessness is more fun than partial toplessness.

    Bad ass . I just picked up a 69 c20 that is about 97% rust free and a k20 complete 4x4 frame to swap . Putting an LS I have in it for my 15 year old daughter to drive next year . Might keep the sm465 … might do a 4L80 , depends on budget . Hope to get a video up soon . Nice job guys !

  • @timothymilam732
    @timothymilam732 Год назад +2

    Really best need to let the youngster do a lot of the nasty parts, and include him as much as possible.
    Otherwise he won't appreciate what he has, it'll be taken for granted, and he'll be like so many others that just beat it into the ground whether on his own, or by peer pressure
    Just a note from a father of three boys, who raised my to work for whatever they wanted even while in school and playing multiple sports at the same time.
    While their friends were given what they wanted, and the majority of those kids didn't make it six months, and most not even a year.
    Just a friendly comment from someone that cares about the future of our kids everywhere.

    You say no new car for this kid....do you know how much and how hard it is to find a decent K5 Blazer today? I would rather give a kid a new car and keep the K5! Those are my favorites. My last one discovered frame failure from my son's and I having fun.
