Re: Radical customization
Major skills there, and a cool idea.
The only thing I find disturbing, is the use of the child mannequin...

Re: Radical customization
too bad a 71-72 died to make it but this thing is awesome. tubular control arms would really improve the look

Re: Radical customization
Holy Crap! That's a huge amount of work. And it looks like good quality work.

Re: Radical customization
I like it and sure would like to see more pic's. Wonder how it would look fenderless ? That is some nice work. Yep I want one without fenders please. And another with a stepside bed again fender less. How bout monthly payments for the next hundred and fifty years will that work. Did ya ever think something and just lack the skills and or money. Once again that is nice work. Nick

Re: Radical customization
That is impressive. I always thought it would be cool to scale a 67-72 down to S-10 size, I'd bet that guy could pull it off. I sure couldn't.

Re: Radical customization
Maybe without fenders, and a real tall set of 20s and 22s, and like Cory said, tubular A arms. and that's a big maybe.
I REALLY hope that wasn't a Blazer............

Re: Radical customization
I like it. Definately unusual and creative, and a ton of work. Proportions look good, and the work itself looks well executed. I'd roll it. What's the cover looking thing leaning against the rear? As said above, the control arms could use some work.

Re: Radical customization
Probably one of those shop projects where someone said " You can't save that thing, its rusted too bad". Guess they were wrong...
