Re: I need a tub
Thanks for the replys. Im only 17 and have always wanted a ole school blazer so wen i found a deal on one i dove in head first without knowing a thing about the bodys. The eng drivetrain and frame on mine are great but the firewall and windshield frame are SHOT. so trying to find a decent tub for a good price. I wish the one in seattle was closer but just a little to far. thanks and keep posting

Re: I need a tub
If all your worried about is the firewall and windshield frame, you don't need a tub. A truck cab firewall will work as a replacement. Most times the firewall can be repaired by patching the rusted areas with homemade patches. Windshield frames are a common problem area and people on the board here have some for sale occasionally. I've sold a couple myself in the past.
