Re: Dirt Every Day
Yes, your idea makes sense. I'd like to make my own Blazer using a long bed 67-72. Use a Blazer frame (any year) or shorten the long bed frame. Cut out a square with the wheel opening in it. Cut cab just behind door jamb/cut front of bedside to weld up. Bob rear as desired, measure forward on bedside to cut to length, them get wheel opening into proper place. I think I'd cut the top once the bed and cab were unitized. I wish I had a picture. Saw a 2wd Blazer made that way showing all the cuts. But that one had no doors. Just the bedside running to the front fender. You just climb in.
