I love the fact that you went with 20s and still nailed the required "Big and Little" look.

A true inspiration

No, but that's not a bad idea.

I have a source for Billet Specialty wheels, but I would rather not hijack this thread discussing it...

Ric83 · 12-23-2007, 07:14 AM

Beautiful. Great job.

Those would look great on my truck too!what does a set like that cost?
Do they have a paper that shows the loadcapacity?
What would be the costs of shipping to Germany?

I love the look!

tvblazer78 · 12-24-2007, 04:16 AM

Ken you can hijack my thread any time, I did not want to let everyone know about the wheels before we talked more about it, so for you guys that like Billet Specialty wheels, well you better talk to this guy Roger at Stoked Out, a very cool guy.

Thank you all for cool replys.

This was the first time out with the new wheels. Looks killer..

Thanks Ken and Roger!!

sighlurr · 01-02-2008, 12:17 PM

Very slick. Stance and tire/ wheel combo couldn't be more perfect.

smashingchuck · 01-02-2008, 01:28 PM

very cool. proof that bagged truck don't have to lay frame to look awesome! I really like the new interior, too.

**N2TRUX** · 01-02-2008, 01:50 PM

Dooode! You are going to have a hard time putting the roof back on. That thing looks freakin amazing like that. You had to be touching yourself just a little when it rolled out in the light of day...

Desert Dweller · 01-02-2008, 03:14 PM

Sswweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeett!!!!!!!!!!!

WELD4DAYS · 01-04-2008, 07:44 AM

Awesome looking truck.Those wheels with the black paint look sweet!

baknblk · 01-04-2008, 07:53 AM

yes looks awesome neighbor

bhunt31 · 01-04-2008, 08:42 AM

Amazing looking Blazer. I have to say though, I'm envious of you being able to have a day like that to pull it outside on Dec 31. The wind chill is -3 here today and my truck is under a blanket of snow

72BlckButy · 01-04-2008, 09:28 AM

Those things look sweet!!!! It looks amazing!!!

tvblazer78 · 01-04-2008, 02:08 PM

boxrodz · 01-05-2008, 08:43 PM

Real Nice.

(Must be the shoes.)

I was curious what it would look like with a smooth chrome bumper.

tvblazer78 · 01-06-2008, 03:17 AM

Thanks for the pic, but I like it black.. This blazer came with Black bumpers and top when it was new in 78. So I just keeped it that way.

Thanks,
Trav

Yeah, the black bumper looks nice.

I was just curious if a smooth chrome bumper would set it off, especially with all that polished gleam. (Nevermind the poor p'chop. It looks like a dull nickel-plated bumper.)

Those deep dishes sure look good.

Your hard work shows.
