You are going "ALL OUT" it's going to look great!

rayray767 · 05-22-2017, 06:30 PM

Been following your 2wheel project for a while now it's really came along way and it's looking fantastic! Looks as if we both bought 4wheel Blazers around the same time got my last one around the end of March. Nice to see these come back to our city. Here's mine.

**lks dcvn** · 05-22-2017, 10:07 PM

^ Nice - and it came with a Hickey roof rack. Was that an Ohio truck? Looks pretty clean for these parts...

Congrats on snagging that one up!

rayray767 · 05-23-2017, 08:54 PM

It was a west coast truck from California then to Washington then got to me .
Thanks I'm pretty happy with it....

**lks dcvn** · 06-23-2017, 12:34 PM

A few more updates from what was under the paint of the blue tub. A few spots of rust, but nothing compared to the original tub...

**lks dcvn** · 06-23-2017, 12:35 PM

more pix

**lks dcvn** · 06-23-2017, 12:36 PM

Last pic - one piece floor for the front section and at least one bedside to replace...

**lks dcvn** · 07-16-2017, 07:51 PM

update to the build - more progress being made...starting to look like a blazer again

gringoloco · 07-16-2017, 09:15 PM

Never would have guessed. That blue tub looked solid. Won't be much left other than frame rails and vin plate...

**lks dcvn** · 07-16-2017, 09:16 PM

Selling off the parts off the blue and original tubs to offset the cost of new sheet metal. The labor hours to fix the blue tub are more than buying new metal in some spots - so working smarter not harder in some spots.

**raggedjim** · 07-17-2017, 01:44 PM

You'll have a nice blazer in the end. Coming along great.

gringoloco · 07-20-2017, 12:38 AM

Ah, the comfort of knowing it's rust free

rayray767 · 07-21-2017, 10:56 AM

**lks dcvn** · 08-24-2017, 12:35 PM

A few more updates - body alignment with top is now under way...doors are next.

smbrouss70 · 08-24-2017, 12:59 PM

Cool! It's neat watching a basically brand-new Blazer being built.
