It's not one of my favorites either, I think changing the wheel well openings was a mistake and I'm not a fan of chopped tops. But there are some things they did that I like (dashboard, the wooden bed, door panels, seats, etc) and the quality of the work is good.

I have a hard time with the idea of a hard top blazer, kinda makes them like the old Ford unibodies, but I also think people can build their trucks the way they want to. I'm sure Kevins version will be much more tasteful!
