Re: 70 k20 build that somehow turned into a frame off resto-swap

bringing the chev back from the dead now that my jeep is finished and given to my father for hunting season. definitely going to run a blazer tank now instead of saddle tanks. i sawzalled the rear off a square body blazer frame and took it home to cut the tank crossmembers out


also picked up some 3/4 ton 56" rear springs and sand blasted them,the spring hangers,an old barden bumper,and the aforementioned tank crossmembers.then painted it all.



the frames clear of the old stuff and ready to get spring shackle hangers 4" back and modified tank crossmembers.i have a blazer skid plate,straps,etc.still need to get a tbi tank and modify the ends of the crossmembers to get everything to play nice together.also cut a blazer fuel door of a tub to weld into the bedside.


nice to make some progress after a year of down time
