Cool Truck
Sorry this is all I can find so far. Looks like another cool ride from Hills Hotrods.

I like what was done to the bumper. I have been planning on doing something similar myself.

Very nice looking truck!!
Looks like the bumper was shaved and tucked for sure...license plate provision was whacked as well. Not positive, but it might also be shortened (width wise)...fenders were modded as well to make it all flow. Thanks for sharing! ![]()

Very nice. Doesn't someone sell those bumpers without the bolt heads? I think I've seen those for sale somewhere.

Looks sweet. Jason Hill strikes again. I think he is trying to be the King of 73-87's. Too bad they all "have" to have the late model Burb grill.
It's the LS1 powered Blazer he has been working on...

its a shortbed, so no possibility of being a true dually.
the bumper on the Blazer looks funny to me. the profile of it just isnt right. is it an 88-98? |

I got to talk to Jason about 6 months ago when I was trying to figure out backspacing for the 22's I was ordering for my '79 project. He helped me out and was happy to do so, he has a STRONG devotion to our trucks!! At the time he mentioned two projects that would open some eyes...I'm guessing the K5 is one and this is the other......

Call me crazy, but I think the 88-91 single headlight Blazer/Burb front ends look much better than the quad H/L front ends of the same era.
They look too "busy" to me.

The bumper on the Blazer has been extended on top. It had a section added on the top to minimize the gap between the bumper and the grill. Wanna guess why I know this? ![]() |

I totally missed the fact that it was a Blazer the first time. Does this one have the hard top??

The bumper looks as if it has been raise up pulled inwards and shortened up. Pretty typical around here but always looks great.
