Default New Toy I Picked Up Yesterday...

I bought this 1986 Chevy Blazer K5 from a buddy yesterday. I've always wanted to get a Blazer and have it as a project to restore. Previous owner pretty much did all the motor and drivetrain work, all I got to worry about is interior and exterior. Blazer has a 8" lift, upgraded 8 lug axles, 4.10s up and back,i beefed up 700 tranny and motor wise I dont know the full specs yet but all I know it's a cammed out 327 crate motor with mid-length headers.
