My first MM

[PapaBear]

Hey there, just wanted to introduce myself. I live in Charleston SC and just picked up my first MM, a 1990 from a mechanic friend of mine. It's got 319,000 miles on original motor/trans, and still going strong. It needs paint and an AC compressor, but other than that everything works! I bought the truck as my DD currently gets 11.5 MPG and i'm getting tired of the fuel bill. Gonna park my baby, a 2007 Trailblazer SS, and only bring it out for shows and for weekend cruising and stuff.

I look forward to reading all I can on this site. I don't plan on modding this one right away, but knowing me, I won't be able to leave it alone.

No pics of the MM yet, but here's one of the SS for you:

Welcome, and nice trailblazer

Welcome aboard.
I give him 1 year, and he will be hooked just like the rest of us. Then out comes the money and in goes the cool. :)

I don't think I'll last a year, lol.

I lasted all of 1 month on the TBSS......but I knew it then too. I've already found a set of drop spindles that a friend has in his garage....fo free!!

Andy I haven't even picked up the truck yet, lol.

Dont' know why the pic got cut up, but it is in damn near perfect condition other than paint. Body is straight as an arrow and interior is awesome.

The easy way to do a picture is to upload it directly to the board directly. (it becomes an attachment)
Or if you use a URL click the picture button on the editor and make sure there is a check mark in the box for: Retrieve remote file and reference locally. If you upload to the board as an attachment, they get resized automatically.
If you have used a board before and you use the [img] tags then it will always show the full size picture. We also have a free picture tool in the link section. It works great. I use it all the time. It can do batch resizing. 300 pictures at a time is no problem. And it's free.
It's best to set them under 800 X 800 pxl.
