    Cool options on this Blazer I found at a yard with overhead console and factory tach?

    Man if I had no come there in my own blazer to nab some door panels I would’ve picked it up in a heartbeat. I will be coming back, I swore I took some exteriors but nothing is popping up, very straight truck with a nice texas sunburn over a faded silver.

    1977 Blazer I found at a yard, no part out yet the guy was trying to sell it to me for $3000, really interesting options has anyone seen that overhead console before? Wonder what the truck was used for...

    Strange Horn Issue

    Hi guys hear me out on this one. Horn has never worked on my 1976, when pressing the horn something clicks under the dash/firewall which I presume means the relay and horn button on my steering wheel is working. If I put direct 12 volts from the battery to the wires from the horn in the engine...

    1976 Former Ambulance/Sheriff C30

    Just checked out the hand throttle and it does work, at idle it raises my RPM as you pull it out.

    I believe it was a method for specifically work trucks to control the throttle without pressing the pedal. I’m sure more experienced users can chime in.

    1976 Former Ambulance/Sheriff C30

    Here in Texas blue lights are a grey area, I know over west they will smash the light as soon as they see it. The owner told me he never had a problem but I have no use for a light bar so I may just stow it. Also, the light bar up top was originally I believe red and blue before being swapped...

    The Tach is just a summit branded piece the owner slapped on there, would be cool though! For sure! When it gets light out here I'll send some. It looks almost like the Ambulance company installed the cup holders as the siren is bolted onto it. Thanks! The passenger side one has a red lens...

    1976 Former Ambulance/Sheriff C30

    Right off the bat noticed the solenoid from my ford, he was nice enough to throw in the dual optima batteries. Apparently to power the whole thing when he first bought the rig it had what he described as an massive “aircraft alternator” with 2 voltage regulators that had to be hooked up to a...

    1976 Former Ambulance/Sheriff C30

    Did I mention the lights, siren, and PA system function? If you look closely you can see remains of the words “Crime Scene” on both doors. It is even titled as a rescue vehicle. 50 Gallon auxiliary tank in the bed that also can connect to fill other vehicles. I am going to need it with that...

    1976 Former Ambulance/Sheriff C30

    Scrolling through craigslist just for fun is a dangerous game. I landed this 70,000 original documented mile truck from a neat guy running a bus maintenance business who himself bought from the town of Kilgore, Texas. It has almost everything I can think of done to it to make it a reliable truck...

    Thanks! Weird thing to put on a 82 Silverado, just another thing to worry about I guess

    Speedometer Connection To Tranny?

    What am I looking at in this picture? My truck came without a speedometer cable and this connection is not something I’ve seen before. Forgive me if the answer is obvious.

    Ignition Problems

    Some other miscellaneous photos showing the rats nest under the dash and my fuse box, it’s a wonder this thing ran!

    Ignition Problems

    Thank you so much for helping and the pictures, I took these before your reply but I’ll go take a look at your suggestions later. Some things to note why is my solenoid wire yellow?

    Ignition Problems

    Pleasure to discover this neat forum! I just acquired a 1982 C10 Silverado for $800, beautiful, solid truck with some mismatched bolt on modifications that drove home great but at that price there is some issues. The primary issue I am working on is reversing the anti theft measures the...
