Well, Blue just rolled over 200,000 miles saturday. A friend and I threw a party and had a lot of people there, and we even had an Isuzu Rodeo Pinata. Mucho Fun! Anyway, i made a short video detailing the life of blue from when I first got him to now. Let me Know what yall think, and I would like to here other 200,000 miles club members!

That was good. Oh and I made it so the vid is in your post instead of the link.

What ever happened to that grill you were making?

Thanks everyone! It only took me 4 days to make that, lol. It was real fun to do so as well, really puts all the work ive done with blue into perspective over the last 5 years. Can only hope the next 5 years will be half as much fun as it has been now!

Where did you get all of those parts? Was any of it custom made? It's nice to see an old vehicle get restored instead of junked. How do you make a video embedded into a thread?

The colorful blue interior parts on the door panels, and the dashboard gauge cluster.

As for the interior, i painted that myself. The gauge cluster is actually white face gauges i got from procarparts.com, and the aluminum bezel surrounding it i got from ebay.

thanks guys for the comments on the video. Im actually here in a couple of days going to have a little report written up about my trip this week to the Louisville Assembly Plant for a private tour. Wasnt allowed to take pictures inside, but the story will give you a sense of what happened. and if any of you ever get a chance to go, please jump on it!
