Re: tjs 72 Blazer Build

Some progress over the past few weeks.

The panel gaps and levelness came out really nice. Very respectable for a 44 year old truck. There wasn't any metal work really done and I think the body shop spent a little more time on it than the factory might have.

So far I am liking how it is sitting on the custom springs. It will sit down a little bit more once a few hundred pounds of interior, spare tire, and fuel gets in it. It has a little rake towards the front but I was very clear with the top installed it had to be level and not have a saggy ass so I think it is shaping up the way I asked for.

The tires look a little bit small in there but those ones measure 29". I'm still leaning towards 295/75 R16 which measure a full 33" .

So far I have a big on my face.
