Dads69C10 what colour is your truck ? It looks totally sweet.

Thanks! It's a midnight blue that came off a late model Lexus I believe. I'll ask my painter for the exact name and code if you like

Thanks d-666. Took it out into the mountains today and had a blast. Photographed a Washyta and Prairie Side Notched Projectile Point. I am pursuing my Masters in Archaeology and plan on doing a lot of camping while I do research for land use/lithic procurement in this rig.

Re: How about some pics of "4x4" Blazers, Jimmy's & Burbs?
 

I like it

Re: How about some pics of "4x4" Blazers, Jimmy's & Burbs?
 

nice truck are those bushwackers?
i wana get some for my 78 looks like the markers are covered?

Re: How about some pics of "4x4" Blazers, Jimmy's & Burbs?
 

another cool one ,with fender extenders.bushwackers?
i see the later year it covers the marker a bit...

Re: How about some pics of "4x4" Blazers, Jimmy's & Burbs?
 

I personally don't think it looks good notched around the side marker, looks like a late afterthought. I'd rather just shave the marker and have a complete flare instead.

Re: How about some pics of "4x4" Blazers, Jimmy's & Burbs?
 

yeah, Bushwackers. I don't particularly care for the way the cover half the marker light either. Not all states will allow shaving marker lights, and not all people are willing to do that much work. I shaved them all on my '71 C10, for looks. But, for this vehicle they are all about function since I didn't want to lift it more to clear the tires. Looks aren't a priority on this build. It's all about utility. It did take me about a week to get up the courage to take the saws-all to the quarter panels though.

BTW, if one wanted to shave the light and not have the notch out of the flare, they could just buy the front flares for a 70's model where the lights were vertical. No notch on them.

Psycho71- I wasn't trying to sound critical, I was just kinda throwing out an idea is all. If you can, get some clearer pics of the Suburban and post up more. Looks pretty nice!

Re: How about some pics of "4x4" Blazers, Jimmy's & Burbs?
 

It's all good. I agree with you on the partially covered marker light. But in looking at it, it would have been difficult for them to do it any other way.

Actually, any clearer or closer pics right now and it would look worse. The paint is pretty rough. The body is fairly straight and rust free but it sat out in a pasture for about the past 8 yrs in the TX sun. So the paint is toast. It'll be getting painted in the not so distant future. Nothing special though, probably a step or two better than a rattle can job. I'm gonna wait til I get the bumpers and roof rack built for it before I worry about paint though. All in good time.

Re: How about some pics of "4x4" Blazers, Jimmy's & Burbs?
 

I was gonna run those Bushwackers, I like the rivet/bolts in them, (looks tough) but I think I just need to make some like these, I'll need more clearance anyway. Seriously considering moving my front axle forward about 3" and my rear back 3-6" as well. I need to talk to Todd and get more pics of his black one...

Re: How about some pics of "4x4" Blazers, Jimmy's & Burbs?
 

I found this movie a few weeks ago, maybe some people might like it. You have to pause the vid at 1 second to really see the thing from a distance. I wish the random guy didn't film it so fast, but this video is worth about 1,000 pictures, he pretty much shows everything!

Re: How about some pics of "4x4" Blazers, Jimmy's & Burbs?
 

yup looks kinda weird half covered,but i like the look of them tho
I know what you mean about working up to cutting......i took a roof off my 78 cutlass
and my truck is a 78 so the up and down is good!

Re: How about some pics of "4x4" Blazers, Jimmy's & Burbs?
 

what kind are those monsters lol

Re: How about some pics of "4x4" Blazers, Jimmy's & Burbs?
 

hope you don't mind but i cleaned up the pics a bit to see the fenders better got rid of some of the haze

Re: How about some pics of "4x4" Blazers, Jimmy's & Burbs?
 

I dig the EXO cage! Never seen one on a burb. It would be interesting to see some more detail on that one. At first glance it looks like there are some pretty long spans w/o support, but without better video or pics of it I'll refrain from negative comments. I do like how he kept the cage so tight to the body, and integrated the rock sliders into wheel well protection/dressing. Overall.....Pretty cool!

Re: How about some pics of "4x4" Blazers, Jimmy's & Burbs?
 

I have actually conatcted the owner and he seems like a really nice guy, I asked for some pics and extra info, if he emails me some I'll post them up.

Re: How about some pics of "4x4" Blazers, Jimmy's & Burbs?

don't know if you guys know about SuicideGirls (the "adult" punk/rock/alt "model" website...) BUT if you are a member or just a fan Amina has a good looking Blazer/K5 as a prop in her Monster set. IF you own this rig I'm jealous!!! http://suicidegirls.com/albums/site/23717/gallery/ :metal:
