Lovin the pics, The truck looks awesome Mike. There are a few square blazers on Okc CL if you need someone to check one out over here just let me know. Most are 4x4 though.

[watahyahknow]

that shouldnt matter too mush , though the 4x4 frame is prolly set up for leafsprings in the front i think porterbuild could make sumting that fit it without mush work or cash outlay , sumtin like the front part of a bodydrop kit but longer that goes under the kickup of the stock leafspring frame where you can bolt on a standard dropmember front
if youre planning on putting in a overdrive 2 wd trans you should only need to add a new driveshaft to have it running again

[Painter D]

Hurry up and find a Blazer so we can watch you build another awesome ride.

I'll plug the Sawzall in and be ready when you pull it in my shop.

I have a trick for you to get all these guys off your back about the pinch weld- paint it flat black and nobody will see it in the pics anymore.

Congrats on making SEMA, I hear ya on all the little stuff to finish. I'm about to tear mine apart again this winter and fix a bunch of stuff that bugs me.

[67cheby]

Lol , I have to one up you I am going with 5 doors on mine you better bring 2 sawzalls !

Magic Dragon at Lake of the Ozarks is cool. You gotta come to the truck nats here in KC. It's a very cool hang. Nice park setting, always good weather, a great time.

Goodguys is not coming to KC in 2013.

I'm not sure what happened.

Des moines, IA is my favorite Goodguys event.
(3500 vehicles at a super facility)
Nashville and Indy should be good events also.

[Slick67]

Looking forward to seeing you at the Fall Good Guys in Ft. Worth....again. You have done such a tremendous job on this build and surely "Square Peg" is going to get lots of attention also. Could not happen to a nicer family. Have a great weekend, or what's left of it.
