I can see $60,000...

Think about it, here is a guy, who picks up a blazer, sends it to a shop, and pays to have it redone. Anyone here ever price out what it takes to chome all of the things that were done to this blazer. Also, ever take your truck to a body shop and ask for a complete paintjob? (not a maico or miracle shop). Would be around $8000 on up as most shop would not touch it, as they like quickie insurance jobs. More then likely, he had this built by a 4X4 shop, and they don't handle it like a restoration, which would explain things like unpainted tailgate letters, no tach, wrong door, etc....

So, would I be able to build a truck like this for cheaper, HELL YA! and so would most other the other guys on this board as most of us can do this on our own....

This guy just flat out paid a shop to build this truck....
