interesting "blazer pickup"

Here's someone looking for a soft top for his "blazer pickup". I wonder if he knows that isn't stock?

Errr - what the heck is that.



Email the person and ask for some pix of the frame and the inside - just to see how well it was cobbed together - how long is the drive shaft on that thing?

I would be curious to know what he paid for that thing...

Re: interesting "blazer pickup"

whoa the only possible hope for that thing is with some type of hard top
it looked like an extended cab
other than that
i guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder

I don't think I'll be inviting him over to measure my top.

Did you get any production quotes yet?

Holy Crap that think looks long! It needs a hot tub in the bed and then put it in a Kid Rock music video or something.

No quotes yet. Other projects in the way. Tho if this weather stays nice it should expedite my soft top construction.

Look how wavy that body line is behind the doors. I guess it's a good thing he's not in a hurry to sell it...

Re: interesting "blazer pickup"

I'm curious to see what the "custom" frame work looks like. Hopefully it's not just one butt weld between the two pieces right under the front of the bed area or something...
