Me too. I'd like some details on this. I was in the JY lookin' at mid '80s GM stuff... Looks like it could be done fairly easily. Even some close-up pictures of your hinges/latches would be nice.

Re: little progress

Very nice. I have never seen your Blazer on here. How much chop did you do on the windshield and how much did you lean the post back?

Re: little progress

Looking great, but please tell me that the truck is not sitting on your front rotors?

Re: little progress

Used hinges from mid 80's buick delta 88. as for the latch you use your stock latch nothing nothing changes there. was one of the easiest mods so far took about 4 hours to mock it up weld it up hang it up. still need to fine tune it a bit. but its there.
no the rotors arn't sitting on the floor, theres a jack under it. had the wheels off so i cud get inside with the hood shut.
theres a bunch of pics of it on here just do a post search of me and find them all.
i stole the idea from (lotik) so i cant really take credit for this one i did change a few things tho.
heres pics of the hinges.
