LOL....Don Johnson, i think !

**67cheby** · 12-18-2012, 03:08 PM

i think this is about all of them ! LOL

**67cheby** · 12-18-2012, 03:59 PM

Does anyone make rocker panels for the square bodies without having to buy the whole door jamb ? I can get a new one from Chevy but it is the whole door jamb .

**LEEVON** · 12-18-2012, 04:40 PM

I just used one that was the full rocker plus about 6" high in each jamb. Ended up cutting just a small section out of it...that's the way it goes I guess. Is this what you're looking at?

Cool pics Mike. I need to get my old pix in digital format. I ain't posting them though.

anyone have any pictures or input on what the did with the stock frame under a K5 blazer to lay it out ? looks like i am going to have to cut off about 2 inches off the bottom and box it all in ? Maybe weld in a 4x2 box tubing all the way down the inside ?

I'm pretty sure that's exactly what you'll have to do.....whatcha doin with the mc/booster?...keepin it on the firewall or movin it inside?

**67cheby** · 12-19-2012, 12:42 PM

It will be a Scott's under dash set up , the firewall should be almost completely smooth except for some bead rolled panels.......any ideas on the wiper motor ? anyway to get rid of it and still have wipers ?

xxlf250 · 12-19-2012, 12:46 PM

thanks man, any input on the frame rail modifications ?

xxlf250 · 12-19-2012, 01:01 PM

to lay pinch will have to cut some off the bottom of the frame and box it in, in this pic the blazer is sitting on the stock gas tank and the front shocks are bottomed out, it still can go down when these issues are fixed
but it gives you an idea.?.
