Looking to build my dream Blazer
I deleted the 2wd ad that I put in the forum because of all the information you guys have given me. Through your suggestions it makes much more sense to me to find a 4x4 with a good/great tub on it and do the conversion. I plan to bag it and am considering a Porterbilt front dropmember and a 4-link rear now so might as well go with a cheaper start and from what I understand a better way to go lower...
Budget is up to 10K for a project that's already converted and set up for bags, probably honestly looking to find one in the 2-5K range with a great body and then build it the way I want from there. I will consider the entire US as a search area because I assume the best tubs are going to be out west of course. Would like an A/C truck but I could add that (Vintage/Old Air) and prefer tilt and tach but I have both of those already ![]() Thanks for all the information so far and I will be picking your brains some more if you don't mind...maybe I can return the favor with parts I pull off my blazer/jimmy when I find it. Below are just a few of the "inspiration" pictures I've saved for my build...Plan on a 67-68 front, cowl hood, 20's all around with a staggered (wider) width rear, leather interior, nice stereo molded in with fiberglass panels on the sides, strong 350/383/400SB with 700R4, Tilt column, Tach Dash or Custom dash (still deciding) Airbag suspension with Dropmember, 4-link, sway bars, etc etc etc....
