My 76 Chevy Blazer,
I was watching and Posting a bunch of 4x4 and Off Road Vehicle Videos on YouTube this evening. Being amazed at what some of them can do!:) And getting a big kick out of watching them go through all kinds of terrain and up some really big hills! So, I thought I would do a Post on my own 1976 Chevy Blazer. I've had her since 1991. I use to do allot of 4 Wheelin back then and I loved it!:) But, those darn parts are expensive when you break em! And the work is getting harder and harder too (fixing her back up after I break her) as every year goes buy. So, she's just my Grocery getter now a days. Besides, at about 10mpg, that's about as far as I can afford to drive her anyways. I don't think I'll ever be able to give her up though. I've been dreaming of how I could fix her up and convert her into a "Hybrid" Electric and just use my trusty 350 Chevy Motor for 4 Wheelin. But, then there's all the work and all the money too. Actually, I also have a 1983 Dodge Good Times Van that's pretty nice inside. But it needs some engine work and wiring too. And someone gave me 8 Interstate 1000 Amp Diesel Truck Batteries. So, if I build a Hybrid Electric. I'll do the Van first. It gets 17 mpg on gas now. So, I could just Pull the Blazer to go 4 Wheeling for a while. Sounds like a Plan... or a Dream to me;)
