cab on blazer frame - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

anybody have any pics of a 67-72 cab on a blazer frame.

67ChevyRedneck · 09-16-2006, 10:42 AM

I saw one YEARS ago running around jamestown NY but I never took any pics of it. It looked kind of odd, the bed was really small, almost like the bed on a midsize truck crew cab. This was back in the early 90s, maybe the guy was an innovator?

I built one once. I put a '67 cab on a '71 blazer frame. I only have one picture of it and it is not digital and I don't own a scanner. I built it more out of necessity more than anything else-I had all these parts laying around and together there was just enough for a shorty. I went with a step side bed, and the rear fenders stopped about 2 inches from the back of the cab. I drove it for many years, but the wife wrecked it finally. I'll try to get that one picture scanned and post it. I want to do another one now that I know a little more and can do it right. I made a few mistakes the first time. It always got a lot of comments, though.

This is a really poor picture-I took a picture of the picture I have. You can kinda get the idea. It was a rust bucket for the most part. I was making progress toward a coat of paint when it met it's demise. This was taken at the 1987 Summit County fair demolition derby. Those 2 kids are mine. They were 3 and 6 then, they just turned 22 and 25 last month. Funny how time slips away. I am the one in the light blue shirt 2nd adult from the right. The blonde in the yellow shirt is Ms. P. The rest are some of my closest friends.

There is one that pops up on Evil Bay from time to time, he has been
trying to sell it for like 2 years, he put a cab on there, shortened the
bed, & made it look like a short, short swb, kinda looks freaky, JMHO

There was one in the parking lot of the Nats in Maggie Valley this past year. I thought I had made a shot of it......but I can't find it. Trucks on Blazer frames seem to turn up pretty regular around here (the quality seems to vary quite a bit too).

**SOON2BLAZE** · 09-17-2006, 09:39 AM

Theres one about 5 miles from my house. I'LL shot a pic and post it tomarrow afternoon. It will no doubt be an Ugly TOTM winner due to it's zebra paint job. Seriously.

**Palf70Step** · 09-17-2006, 10:20 AM

There should be one in Krue's driveway/yard sometime in the near/far future.

I am going to throw one together some day for a snow plow truck...........We bought a Trazer many years ago, so it already has the cab mounts and everything on it...........I am going to put a stake on it.

qksilver · 09-17-2006, 07:22 PM

a member from knoxville had one for sale on here. A blue one with a fleet bed he bought off of E-Bay. It looked pretty good as far as dimensions go but wasn't done well. Lots of bondo and poor alignment of body parts

Yes, but-I found that the rear cab mounts lined up perfect on the Blazer frame, but over the years the mounts on the frame started to sag a little. They are just kinda flat, if I did it again I would reinforce those mounts somehow.
