Well I have officially ruint a factory 2wd blazer!!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

jkade · 10-26-2008, 06:46 PM

But I love it

Has 1.5" out of the front posts and 1" out of the rear, it is hard to make out in the pics but the porportion is just about right as far as the height of the cab to the length of the body.

vtblazer · 10-26-2008, 07:07 PM

SWEET!

bouncytruck · 10-26-2008, 07:42 PM

Wow, I didn't know you were going to go for it. Looks good. It's only ruined if you don't finish it!

low'n slow · 10-26-2008, 08:13 PM

Looking pretty good. Heck, it can't be ruined, you could always change it back with time and skill.

I can't afford to loose this much

This one isn't going no where, maybe one day when it is finished but it will cost someone some serious green.

I have never been much on chopped tops but it looked out of porportion stock height. Thanx for the props.

Now that it has more of a truck look I think the eye wants to see it in those proportions. Combine the shorter front of the "bed" (area between rear wheels and door) with a chopped top and though it looks killer, I think the rear looks a tad out of proportion (long) now. Here it is with about 3" taken out of the rear. While you have the cutting devices and welder warmed up...

mkundo · 10-31-2008, 04:31 PM

I like your style. now that you got the easy stuff done. What's the plans for the windshield?
Thanks for the High.

69c4x11 · 10-31-2008, 05:07 PM

yes!!!!!!!!! the 3" removed , looks sick!!! Ya'll guit putting ideas into his head,,,, I had my doubts about the graft & chop but now I'm convinced. the General should have done it from the factory !!!! The bad thing is it's "WOORRKK ",, and another longer period before I regain control of my shop !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

c10addict · 10-31-2008, 05:24 PM

So wait.... This is the same bad a$$ blazer that is in your avaitar?

He is pissed enough about having his vette in the carport so I need to get this thing out ASAP

He is doing most of the work too

I had to scroll up 4 times to notice the difference

I ain't diggin in that deep though, don't you think I have ruint it enough and why you always wanna go and make things shorter

That would look sick but I have to draw the line somewhere.
