It's currently just cut out, but yes you definitely have to cut/raise it. Going to have a raised floor on it soon.

Yep. For the big Porterbuilt notch and to fit the fuel tank. The framing in the back is just there to stabilize it while I work on getting it done correctly.

A photo of the Blazer primered black, and the tailgate being modified by my brother (http://instagram.com/elsick7) to spell out C10CREW.

Wow - great work on the tailgate! Sharp truck.

mcbassin · 02-28-2017, 09:07 AM

Nice work on the tail gate!

boynton · 03-25-2017, 01:04 PM

Amazing work on the tailgate! Your brother is very talented. Did he lazier cut the letters and then form the tailgate to them? I would love to see more pictures of the work!

lazer cut? no, it was all hand cut haha... we used two tailgates to come up with all the character. i'll have to look for more photos, i'm sure i have some somewhere...

NorCal · 05-17-2017, 12:27 AM

I'll have to look for more photos of when it was put together, but this one was taken after the initial primer... was still wet at the time.

**Nobby** · 05-21-2017, 08:26 PM

Blazer lookin Great! Awesome job on the gate..

NorCal · 06-01-2017, 12:39 AM

The sweet '67/'68 Blazer trim from Mar-K Manufacturing arrived last week... and the killer Black Widow Exhaust mufflers/x-pipe this week... Keeping it moving!

NorCal · 06-01-2017, 12:42 AM

A recent photo of the Blazer, I should have thrown the caps back on at least for the picture... oh well, maybe next time

zammer · 06-10-2017, 02:42 PM

killer! sub'd!

70blackfish · 08-23-2017, 07:36 AM

i didn't catch if you used the 4x4 frame and just used porterbuilt to convert it. and did you use trailing arms in the rear?

LOOKS good i want one

**396ci** · 09-19-2017, 08:39 PM

whats the status? don't keep us waiting....LOL

NorCal · 10-02-2017, 12:59 PM

A few weeks ago... it has changed a bit.

NorCal · 10-02-2017, 01:00 PM

Oh.. yea, it's heading to SEMA

Here's the updated rendering and all the awesome sponsors on board, but whether sponsored or not, I would definitely recommend all these companies!

NorCal · 10-02-2017, 01:09 PM

A few more photos... insulation by Quiet Ride Solutions and rubbers by Precision and the fellas over at Something Sik Customs have been doing most (or all lol) of the work lately to help speed up the process and get it done... oh, yea... also documenting the bigger parts of the build.

scf100 · 10-05-2017, 08:30 PM

Nice

NorCal · 10-09-2017, 10:22 AM

It's taking shape... I wrapped one side this weekend with 3M Gloss White Aluminium (the top silver half). Beginning to look a bit more like the rendering, only a couple of weeks left.

**lolife99** · 10-09-2017, 12:17 PM

So VERY nice!

Chulisohombre · 10-09-2017, 12:34 PM

Awesome. Looks so clean.
