Hello everyone, here are my two trucks,



#1 is Brutus, my 1972 Chevy Blazer, it has a 454, and some other goodies, I am going to be doing much more to it in the future, but for now I am just enjoying it.



#2 is my 1972 Chevy C-30 Dually, it has a 454 in it, steel crank, rods, forged pistons, roller cam and all the fixins. It is scary fast and powerful, Yesterday though was a bit of a bad day, currently the truck is configured with a SM465, and a 3 speed Over/Under drive gear box, well I was out driving the truck stuck my foot into it, and the 454 twisted it right apart. So as it were I will be installing a NV4500 out of a 95 Diesel here in the next couple of weeks.

The truck also has a GM H072 rear end with 4.56 gears. I need to swap them out for 3.90's and a Locker. All in good time though. First up I will be putting in a new dash, with aftermarket digital gauges, and a Vintage Air system. Then I am going to get the truck repainted, and do a complete rewire.

Other little plans include air ride seats and suspention, and rebuilding the tool boxes on the back, I am going to install new doors using hot rod door latches that will provide for a much tighter latch, and seal much better than the current models do, I also have a set of fuel tanks for under the bed designed that will hold about 90 Gallons of Fuel. That should keep me going on those long out of town type trips.
