Project Heppie
The start..but not beginning. Long story
 .1976 k5 half top converted to 73-74 looks. It will be a full top conversion with grille and emblems from the 73-74's. This is really the tale of about 4 blazers to make 2 very nice ones, but this thread will be about 2 or so k5s. This was sitting behind my neighbors house and he contacted me if I was interested in buying it. 1976 k5- tub really nice 350 motor w/ holley fuel injection kit th350 np203 w/ manual hub conversion factory skid plates

Re: Project Heppie
Teardown.....
The truck came from Arizona about 10 years ago. The cab and bed floor are immaculate, and the rocker supports as well. It will need a few patches, (rockers, and bedside rails as the top was never removed, and the weatherstrip held moisture as you can see on the roof line.) With that being said, the rest of the tub was the nicest I have seen around here and the top rust was the reason for doing the conversion. So I began looking for a 73-75 body to get as a template.
