Well the day has finally arrived. I sold my 1991 Chevrolet Blazer. I remember telling myself I would keep the truck forever but after a decade of ownership it is time to say goodbye. I thought I would be more emotional but honestly I'm not. Just happy to close one chapter and hopefully start a new one.
This video is the day I sold it. Just a walk around, start-up, another walk around, final drive to the new owner, and a recap.
If life was different and I could go back in time I would tell myself to just work on it and follow your passion. I would let myself know it is okay to make mistakes and it doesn't need to be perfect. Perfectionism and poor management on my part really messed this project up. I would also tell myself to not fall in love with it.
I probably did more work in the last year than I did during the entire length of time that I owned the truck. Well... the first few years were fun until the rust was found.
I sold it to a local so I know where the truck is for now but I don't know what will happen to it. Could be turned into a woods truck or even just stripped down for parts.
If you've followed this adventure this far I really appreciate it!
Special shout out to @chrisfix for being the inspiration I needed to even attempt to work on this. His video on rust repair really is what helped. Sadly there will be no rust repair like I planned. There was just too much for my level of skill.
