I love seeing a canoe on a Blazer.It looks like you`re going or the birch bark look on the lower body.:cool:

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

Thats a fine looking 68 stepper. It would look good in my yard!

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

Nice one!! They always need something,especially when you use them :cool:.Never let that get you down.if it starts buggung you about a list of repairs,just know others look over at that truck and wish they had it.These still have style,even when they`re falling apart.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

Some great trucks in this thread. I like the ones covered in mud out having fun!

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

It`s no secret that brush trucks are a great find for a well preserved sample of these trucks.but,you sure ound an waesome one,in more than one way.1st,it`s just that damned nice!2nd,It`s just a nice looking utility truck that`s not overboard with ire apparatus.It`s a nice fire truck example w/o being so dedicated that others can`t appreciate it.Like me...when it comes to fire trucks I`m smaller on "fire" and bigger on "truck".3rd,it`s a`68!

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

That`s a nice job on that.Those fender well headers are over the top!:metal:

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

Thanks! they are the headmen hustler kit. Which is a $300.00 box of tubes shiped to your door so you can build them how you want. 2 1/8'' primarys and 4'' colecters into 4'' 50 series flowmasters.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

Now that`s a set of headers that`ll clear the clutch linkage.:cool:

That shot at the dunes is a classic magazine shot,if you ask me.Paddles and all.

Wow, thanks guys. The backdrop is the Continental Divide. I took that picture on a gorgeous spring day at ~10,000' on the road to Mt. Evans west of Denver. You get some incredible views between there and the summit!

Tires are 33" on 16" rims (305/70R16) w/ a mild 4" lift. Front springs are soft Alcan's w/ 9 leaf packs. Thanks again.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

all nice trucks. I am trying to find links to 4x4 conversions. I need to see pics of the front end. How the front springs are mounted.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

Don't mind the body mount, the will fix later in time, but not high on my list.

A convertion is pretty easy everything is a bolt up process, the truck was halfway done when i got it, but the rear hanger are already in the frame i belive so all you need is
CRoss member, with motor mount brackets, or customs fab if up, you can use the 2wd and makes a plate from the frame to bracket and bracket to bracket. I tried just welding frame to bracket each side the weld broke, tig welded.

Tranny/ t-case
springs
Axle
Shocks
And drivelines.

the front and rear

Yes the exhast is welded right there, a muffler shop did it, don't know why but they did, And i don't really care.

Edit i was going to take a pic of a 67-72 chevy truck that was at the dunes, a nice one clean from where i was at, but seemed the motor was lackng somewhat sounded good, just tires didn't seem to want to move fast, He was trying to throw sand.
