4 door fullsize Blazer?!?!?! Only on CL!

[jimmyleetn]

I am always wasting time searching for Blazers and parts on CL, but I came across this gem as I started searching neighboring states. I have hundreds of questions and observations, but I'll just leave this here for you to enjoy. I'm posting the pic because sooner or later this won't be on CL and potentially lost forever. Best thing is in one part of the description it says "some assembly required." Hopefully no one else has posted about this.

Think that’d be a nightmare to try and get registered.
I’m no body guy but I think it would’ve been easier to cut the roof of the ‘Burb off just past the passenger door and weld the part that the top bolts to to the roof skin, that way there’d be less body work. I think someone on here grafted a Blazer top to their ‘Burb and it turned out pretty nice.

I'm sure it can be done but man you'd have to be really be on your game. I've seen a guy that took a 4 door 54 Ford and make it look like a 2 door. It nearly fooled my dad and he's one of those If it's that tail light it's this year kinda of people for pretty much anything pre 73'.

Look at how bad it's lined up in the pic. What a mess. He probably got in over his head and ran out of money. There are some expensive parts he gathered up for this.

That one appears to be a much more solid build.

There were a couple that did this here but he is the only one I remember the username for

Man I bet the rust belt guys hate seeing what can be done to what looks like a couple of decent trucks in a meth-head project like this.

Just a good way to screw up two decent bodies. One should not hit the pipe and then pick up the sawzall or cutting torch.

It looks close but I don't think that it welded in or bolted to the frame, do to the tie-downs, he seen the height of the floor of back stop.

If you look at the pictures and read the ad he just cut the piece and tossed it on the frame strapped it and is selling it.

That's just silly

here's the one I mentioned. it can be done nicely.

That's actually a really cool looking rig.

The one in that CL ad has danger written all over it. I hate they wasted a nice blazer just to abandon the build.

Unfortunately some people have a vision but no idea how to get there.

Looks factory to me.

A guy in the club I was in college made a Burbalanche. Not sure if there are any pictures left, this was the beginning of digital cameras. Was pretty sweet.

Thought about trying that, but our Fall and Spring are so short it wouldn't be feasable. Once summer starts it stays hot until late Sept or early Oct.

Edit: I hate auto correct!!!
