i assume all the silence must mean this is not a popular transformation well i was a car guy i like the 69 c10 just not a big fan of 2wd or dropping a truck in the weeds i have a t/a for being low to the ground so if im going to have a truck i want a big truck and i was allways a fan of blazers so i combined the two and i now have this
call me crazy but i like it

Not sure what you did here. Blazer frame-c10 cab-cut down long bed? I like modifications. Some guys don't. I want to see where this goes!

Honestly, I think this could be cool once its finished. Should look a lot like a blazer with a half cab on it I'm guessing. I'm for sure interested in the final result.

ya maybe i think messing with my T/A would be a bad idea too its 100% factory with ws6 package and even the windshield is original with the GM factory imported to canada sticker on it .

Seems like a candidate to leave alone to me. I can't see any advantage in using that engine in anything else. Funny you mention a late 80's T/A, I was just having a conversation the other day about when cars from that era will really get collectible. I've always liked that that body style. Of course I like just about all Trans Ams.

thats my prob with the T/A it is right at the time where it is starting to be collectible but they sold alot of them good for me alot got customized so mine is still a 100% except tie rods and tires . my 69 is rare but the PO did a hack job on the resto too much bondo and spray foam so i did all new steel and thought what the heck chop it up and make a one of a kind truck

That is true, you rarely see a nice stock third gen Trans Am or Camaro.
