Ba Ba Ba BAM, here it is

I have been holding out with a big pic but here it is. Also it was just barely together here so pay no attention to how it all fits together.

Daaaang, that b!tch is sweeet! I have always loved the 69-72 Blazers, and this is exactly why. I never could find one that wasn't junk, so I gave up and bought my 82. Now I wish I had stayed with my hunt for a decent 69-72 instead...

Thanks for the compliments.

The winshield is laid back but the glass is still stock. As for color that is up in the air right now. My avatar is the original concept but I doubt it will end up yellow.

Brad, are you still considering the trim? If you use the trim idea, definitely a factory availible color during that period . . .....

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

DAMN!!! That is sweet as hell Brad. Much better than the flame truck you had for sure. I bet you will win some awards once it's all done.

If you are going to keep the 56 Bel Air trim idea, I would vote for turquoise and white. That truck looks killer, and a vibrant 50's shade would make it stand out even more. Simply Awesome.

If not, I would say either a dark blue or eggplant (remember ZZ Top's CadZZilla) with a bone color interior would look soooo good too.
