Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"
Congrats on the sale Buck. I'm certainly gonna miss seeing that truck around the board. Good luck on the search for your blazer.

Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"
Yes, he has a very nice truck, it looks awesome going down the road as I found out at Cruisin the Coast this year. But... I figured out a lot of things I'd like to do differently with this build. I want a certain braking system, suspension, and drive-train. It wouldn't make sense to buy his and change a lot of it. Certainly is an awesome truck though!! I may go the same route you are pondering... converting a 4x4.

Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"
Going with a 4x4 and converting it would be a good option if you can't find a nice 2wd. 4x4 + Porterbuilt would equal a sick ass Blazer build

Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"
Buck, I picked up a 4x4 Blazer after CTC and have been talking with Mr. Porter. He makes it real easy to convert, just sayin'.

Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"
Yep, just have to wait for the pieces to fall into place before I let out too much info. Don't want to jinx it.

Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"
I really like them, they seem to be very nice people. I'm glad it went to a good home and that I will get to see it every once in a while. It will be a good truck for her... err them.
