1980 Full size Chevy Blazer.

Motor caught on fire due to metal shavings in the "rebuilt" Holley I bought from Summit. I put it out with the garden hose (air cleaner off) and being the stupid 17 year old I was I cranked it and shot about a gallon of water out of the exhaust. Bent 4 rods and cracked the heads.

Rebuilt it with the help of a buddies brother-in-law. Learned all about motors, and had a stout small block that could smoke all four 33"s in 4-low. I miss that truck.
