Your welder has been busy! I like the way you just welded up the holes for the dash pad. I am thinking you leaned the windshield back?? Then I noticed you have cut the windshield post.........are you going to have a top?? Looks good!

*Gee_Emm* · 08-08-2004, 12:17 PM

wow, looks good, What is up with the vent in the kick panel?

slogo · 08-08-2004, 01:21 PM

no vent, made a box for a set of 6x9 speakers. just have to do some grinding and some filling to clean it up a bit.

*Gee_Emm* · 08-08-2004, 02:07 PM

Hmm, good idea.

Great job

earl87gta · 08-08-2004, 09:03 PM

If you dont have a top I have a extra dubble wall you can use I was saving it for a half top or bikkini top but I will never get around to it so if you think you can use it to make your top let me know.

Nice work man, your pics sure help rookies like me, keep them coming please.

This is going in, i was going to put it in the 68 but i'm going with a ZZ4 create instead. so the BIG BLOCK goes in the blazer. already did a trail fit and everything looks good as far as fit. the 68 was going to be yellow so that's why it's that color.

**Yukon Jack** · 08-09-2004, 10:06 AM

That's an impressive amount of work. Will be eager to see this one completed.

FRENCHBLUE72 · 08-09-2004, 10:21 AM

Where Did You Get The Panel For That Gas Door?! Been Wanting To Do That A While. Can I Get Hooked Up W/one?

slogo · 08-11-2004, 06:54 PM

Came off a 2000 S-10, a full size truck will work also just make sure they cut more than you need at the yard so you can trim to fit.

R 78 PROJECT · 08-14-2004, 10:39 AM

Slogo,looks like youve practiced alot before you started this project,speaking of projects is the top going to be chopped also? or are you going topless and just for show n go!!!
