Progress on 70 2WD Blazer - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Classic Heartbeat** · 05-10-2006, 10:08 PM

Been dividing our time between the Blazer and our Panel. Here are some floor and rocker repair shots of the 2WD Blazer. We have a little grinding left to do and are waiting on the rear rocker box reinforcments to be finnished. Once that is done we will bolt in the reinforcement piece and weld the rocker box in.

Here is the prototype of the reinforcement piece. A few things have to be changed befor we are ready to produce these. WES
