Re: 70 Blazer Frame Off
Hey Brad,
Sad to see it go but it will be interesting to follow another build. I wanted to thank you for sharing your knowledge on this build and the things you learned along the way was a good lesson for the rest of us. Looking forward to seeing what is next ![]() Take care, Tom

Re: 70 Blazer Frame Off
Any idea which direction Delmo will take her, I mean he can't make her prettier, right?

Re: 70 Blazer Frame Off
An epilogue of sorts...when we got done, we seemed to have a whole truck left over. I had seen the tailgate benches/shelves on the board and elsewhere and thought it'd be a useful and cool thing to have. Eric is still working the model "A" pictured in a previous posts, but I think he wanted a bit of a break and cranked the tailgate out. After we hung it...he says, "you know we could do the front too." ...How could I not?... It is kind of weird though...not necessarily like mounting Trigger, but it does kind of feel like getting eyeballed everyday when I pull in the garage....debated the 71/72 bumper...it is how it came to me, so there's sentiment to keep it. But I think I'll be on the look out for a solid one. Eric did a great job airbrushing in Chevrolet while keeping the patina vibe. Thanks again Dwayne for the taillight hardware/lenses.

Re: 70 Blazer Frame Off
Brad that's awesome! Can I send you some lenses/assemblies for the front bumper? I believe I have spares boxed up somewhere. Best, Pete

Re: 70 Blazer Frame Off
Now you can keep your Blazer in the garage with out it taking up to much space, and you don't have to change the oil, keep the dust off it, worry about nicks and scratches, feed it gas, pay insurance, etc.

Re: 70 Blazer Frame Off
Delmo just posted this pic of the ole girl on his IG page. It's captioned "Ready to roll" @travisbarker
Is he building another K5 for Travis Barker? Somebody may have caught the K5 bug. |

Re: 70 Blazer Frame Off
Wow! Thanks for the post. He told me that he was going to go up a size or two on the tires. She looks good.

Re: 70 Blazer Frame Off
Looks like she might be heading to join Travis's other K5. Maybe he wanted a classic stock K5 to compliment his lifted one?

Re: 70 Blazer Frame Off
I wish it was mine. That truck belongs to Travis Barker of Blink 182. It was partially built by World Famous 4x4 and Delmos Speed shop in Burbank. This is my truck.
