Default Blazer-2 (Side Project1)

I have been doing this project on the side - it's another '75 Chevy Blazer with the same old school paint scheme. This one is gonna be red and white plus it's gonna be more simple but keeping it 4x4 style with the RS offroad kit and AWD. It has a custom black interior - clear glass so it's easier to see the interior and maybe a few little extra stuff in the back.

Here's what a 2 days project can look like if you can juggle your job and hobby at the same time -lol

Day1: About 4 hrs total off and on work -



Day2: about the 8 hrs total off and on also -



I think I should be able to finish this one up sometime today so i'll update this thread tommarrow with the results.

Well I have to make 4 GMC or Chevy trucks (different models) for this 1 customer and he's willing to pay some good money for them too. The whole thing includes a new starter truck kit, all the RS upgrades ( for truck only), Custom body, custom paint job, accessories are optional (adds more to price though) and the interior is also option ( also increase price value). I think i'll be doing them to sell from now on but it's only for serious buyers and I will only do one at a time also.

"GOOGLE" my friend - that's all you need to do! Look up LHS around your area and maybe you'll find one that you didn't even know about.

Thanks for the compliments guys!

I'm currently working on my GMC and another Chevy truck (Cheyenne). I only have 3 trucks that are my own but I have a few bodies for those chasis both custom and xmod bodies. Mopst of the models I used are from Revell and AMT - they are both good for convertions.

Oh yeah - it's nice to see you still drop by Austincrawls!
