My 71 beauty...

Its got a 77 chevy blazer 350 in it. 2 speed ranger overdrive allows it to cruise pretty comfortably at 80!
Eventually I want to do a power steering conversion, steering's pretty loose right now and I'd really like the power. I've been told that classiccruisers in Salida CO has a nice kit.
I just got through taking the spare off (its flat, but at least it wasn't frozen on there!
)
Some minor rust in typical places, surface rust on the frame. I plan to apply an undercoating to the undercarriage. I also plan to take out the rugs to sand down some surface rust thats on the floor pans and apply a rust inhibitor, what's the best product?
My rear heater doesn't seem to work, I don't know much about it, any tips to begin troubleshooting, (typical issues, etc.)? I also have that nylon gear for the rear window on order to get that going. The glass is cracked up pretty good, so I suppose I'll have to find that too....
This is my second pig, I had a 74 missed it so much had to get another, it was in better shape... I also have a 90 FJ62

)). He also had disc brakes put on in the front.
), but what does the CHG light indicate? Mine's on. It's opposite the e-brake light.
The lever may potentially be disconnected from the linkage somewhere. Mine was rusted in place and a little lube fixed it. Follow the linkage to be sure...
. I'll have to try to lube it a bit and pull it all the way out. Thanks!! (High 4 works great (with the hubs locked of course! 
))
