HI EARL -- EVERYTHINGS GOOD OUT HERE. HAD A HEART ATTACK THIS SPRING (GODS REVENGE FOR ME EATING ALL HIS LITTLE FURRY BUDDIES) BUT EVERYTHINGS BACK TO NORMAL NOW. I DIDN'T CONSIDER FOR A SECOND THAT YOU DIDN'T REMEMBER OUR DEAL. YOUR WEBSITE LOOKS GREAT. YOU CAN SURE TELL THAT YOU'VE PUT A TON OF WORK INTO THE MAKING OF THESE VIDEOS, & I CERTAINLY HOPE IT PAYS OFF FOR YOU. YOU'RE KNOWLEDGE IS TRUELY THE ONLY THING YOU CAN SELL, & STILL KEEP. DON'T GIVE IT AWAY FOR NEXT TO NOTHING. JUST THINK WHAT A SET OF THESE VIDEOS WOULD HAVE BEEN WORTH TO YOU, BACK WHEN YOU WERE GETTING STARTED. C-YA JOHN

Earl. It looks great. Ive been thinkin about doin that with my step. Did you use all the blazer reinforcements on the cab, or build em from scratch?

Hey pp how you doing.....No, nothing from a blazer was used. Everything is from pickups. I got a blazer w/s frame-cowl/firewall assembly from junkyardjohn a while back but still don't for sure if I will use it. It is in pretty good shape so I very well may use it at sometime.

Hey Earl, same ol deal, either got time or money, never both. Any structural issues with cuttin off the top? Did you need to reinforce anywhere. My roofs shot, so maybe . After all, I live in So Cal. Also curious as to how you built top of the windhield without blazer parts. Glad to see you get a bit of a break before Daytona gets you runnin around again.

Just a short break....NASCAR apporved new rules changes for the cup and busch cars so everyone is a-holes and elbos right now til about Daytona time.
Nothing structural. I just cut along the under side of the drip rail on the outside and about half an inch up from the where the roof starts on the inside. Nothin fancy, really just playing around for the moment. The w/s really needs to be shortened to look right, and maybe laid back just a little. I'll experiment with it and see what you think. I'm not very familar with blazers, but it seems to me the structure support is at the rocker boxes on the blazers. Maybe some of the blazer experts could speak on this. I'll probably put it together and drive it this summer and see what it needs to stay together... |
