wow $8,000 for 17-19 inch of travel.... that is a smoken deal for someone with the cash......

Reminds me of the guys that take a 67-69 Camaro and use them for dirt track racing.

**Stocker** · 09-03-2009, 06:58 PM

Looks very nicely done, for what it is! I need a truck like that, like I need another hole in my head.

bouncytruck · 09-03-2009, 08:52 PM

Very nicely done. I believe that Vic Hickey built several 2wd Prerunners back in the day too. He also built the oldsmobiles for James Garner (which remind me of the comment about the Camaros)

Otsa580 · 09-03-2009, 09:53 PM

I'd drive it. Pretty sweet.

I would...in a freakin' heartbeat!

I'd buy it, wish I wasn't already sitting on two project blazers.

**Tom Vogel** · 09-04-2009, 09:15 AM

Now THAT is a SMOKin deal. You couldnt build that for four times the cost.

airsierra · 09-27-2009, 11:30 PM

Well Hello...

And yes that's my Blazer. It was built in the mid 80's to pre-run Baja which it Pre-ran the 1000 twice and 500 once.

I just bough it from a buddy about 4 months ago.

I decided not to sell it due to my Wife told me I better keep it..

. Plans include full Fiberglass bed side's more cage work. I want it to be able to enter car shows and that night go and rail the desert sand. If I'm not on this site I will be on www.reno4x4.com I'm a mod on this local 4x4 Forum.

Welcome to the board, sweet ride.

CTENTA1 · 03-08-2011, 01:01 PM

Any plans on going to the SCORE 250 in SAN FELIPE BAJA MX. It's this weekend. March 3-11 to 3-13.

Nice ride. My brother has seen this Blazer in the past. He's actually the one who showed me pics of it before I saw them anywhere else. It's funny, he always gives me s*** saying this is what a Blazer should really look like. He's a Desert guy!

bmfpeterson · 03-10-2011, 04:25 PM

I agree I think that blazer is wayyyy bad a$$!

**special-K** · 09-28-2009, 07:06 AM

Well HELLYA!!! Welcome to the site and thanks for a new site to check out.

I love it!! That`s got to be a blast! Build`em how you like`em and enjoy`em!...YEEHAW!!!!...(I wish I could hear it)

ABLAZN · 09-28-2009, 09:25 AM

airsierra, that is a very cool Blazer. I had considered a PreRunner at some point, but was not sure how to go about it. Your Blazer and wife both rock!!!

**Yukon Jack** · 09-28-2009, 09:34 AM

Nice one airsierra!

Arizonak5 · 09-29-2009, 12:09 PM

Awesome work but in my eyes the blazer has been destroyed! I'm a purist i rather see them put backtogether, not torn apart, but again the level of craftsmanship in the blazer looks top notch just wish they didN'T pick a 69-72 to do it to!

I agree..but I did not do the work it was built back in the late 1980's early 90's so its to late now.

Arizonak5 · 09-29-2009, 12:41 PM

yeah i hear ya and in the 80's these truck were not nearly as desired so i can see their train of thought, Pretty fun in the desert im sure!!
