Pro Touring Blazer Built by Hill's Rod & Custom
My name is Curt Hill owner of Hill's Rod & Custom. I'm not affilaited to Hill's Hot Rods in Texas. Great name but not the same company. We are in Bay Area, California.
I thought I would show you guys this 1972 Blazer we built for a customer. We built this 1972 Blazer from the ground up. We just finished the show scene and now the customer is driving it. We built this car to be driven low and hard. We developed wheel wells for this blazer. You can see the wheel well in the suspension forum, or the link on my signature. IT IS NOT ON AIR BAGS! These pictures are ride height. Over the next couple days I will add build pics. Answer any questions you might have. Enjoy these Pics. Curt Hill

So there has been some response to what parts we used.... Well alot of them were built by Hill's. The dropmember, control arms, and hood hinges were Porterbuilt. This was his first coil-over dropmember. The Coil-overs are Strange Engineering. When the customer bought this blazer we were going to just lower it but it turned into a full build when he drove it home and the motor blew up. The owner wanted nothing to do with airbags so we talked him into coil-overs. The 4link, frame stiffening, boxing of the frame, Sway bars, were all built and designed by Hill's. If anyone else is interested I can do the same to there frame. In those frame pictures the big rectangle piece of alumn. are heat shields for the exhaust. The customer didn't want the interior to get warm from the motor heat. Here are some more pictures...
