Re: for you blazer guys



It kind of looks like it is about to fall apart - with the front wheels and the huge gaps in the front clip, it looks like the front end doesn't fit quite right. I'm sure with a little adjusting and some finish work, it could be ok. It does look like they did a decent job of grafting the front clip to the body lines.

There are so many things not to like about this, it's hard to start naming them.

Re: for you blazer guys

After looking at it for awhile...still can't go with it.

Tons of work for sure and I bet it's exactly what the guy who built it was going for but it ain't no lowered 1st gen.

Re: for you blazer guys

Um, isn't that the blazer listed as stolen on the 73-91 blazer/sub forum here?

Yep it is: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=215268

Wonder if it's been found or the thief is passing it off as his.

No thanks for me too. The Stolen one says its a 79 and is the same picture. Maybe stolen from that owner. The link says its an '82. But its a full vert? A lot of work there.
