Re: My 70 2wd Project begins!

I have to agree - that thing looks amazing...especially when you compare the start and now...

Did you just swap rear axles to 5 lug or did you find a 5 lug rear and drop it in?

Re: My 70 2wd Project begins!

Won't you have to change the rear wheel offset to tuck those rims?

Yes - I have a housing from a 67 being powdercoated then I will swith out my gear and have my axles cut. Should gain about 3/4 of an inch on each side!

Re: My 70 2wd Project begins!

Well - I have not had any luck selling this yet so I may get creative. I really need it to go away by the first of the year so that I can pay some debt and move on. If it doesn't sell complete I am CONSIDERING parting it out. I would need commitment to purchase most of it before I could let anything go but I am CONSIDERING it. Here is how it would break down. If you are interested in any of parts PM me and I can let you know what it would sell for IF it sells...

1 - Body (see details of paint, fab and interior in build) and Chassis with dropmember c4, c4 rack, c4 spindles, c4 arms, Shock waves, rear Air Ride Tech Trailing arm kit, rear end with Auburn Gear/Moser exles, new windshield, new rubber, air tanks.

2 - Motor/Tranny (5.3/4l65e) - wiring harness and ECU - With or without headers and intake

4 - Custom Radiator

5 - Aluminum Tank with LS pump and braided lines

6 - Air Ride Level Pro Kit

7 - Vintage Air stuff

8 - Ididit Column, adapter, steering wheel and wrap

9 - Wheels and Tires - see build

10 - Wilwood Brakes - Front and Rear (14" 6 piston for c4 and 13" for chevy 12 bolt truck rear)

11 - 07 Tahoe Seats

12 - Gauges and Avic z1

14 - Brand new tan custom carpet for Blazers with custom mats

15 - Anything else I can round up

Re: My 70 2wd Project begins!

Well, I REALLY hope you don't part it, but if you do, I'd be interested in the CPP master and the wheels pending on price.

I'd be interested in hearing what the engine/ tranny would go for and the vintage air stuff (is it the sure fit system?)
