I think I remember reading that it was actually built from a longbed truck.

Re: old parts = blazer/truck convert????
Have no idea what the frame is .......guessin its a blazer, but not sure , maybe its a shortened up long frame ???? , rest looks like long bed bedsides slid forward to the front fenders and wheel openings moved to match the wheel base ..... AND yes ... it is kool and I want to build one cuz I cant find a good blazer canidate to build ....thats affordable or close

Re: old parts = blazer/truck convert????
That's pretty sweet! I don't think I would want to use it for a daily though, no top or doors would get old pretty quick. Although getting in with it aired out would probably be pretty easy!

Re: old parts = blazer/truck convert????
It does look awesome... And just think... no swiss cheese rockers, cab corners, drip rails, or over the window rot... All the good stuff minus a rusty cab... ;-)
