gotta love that look
well, it started out its life as a 4 door jimmy, 4x4....i found it in pretty good shape, missing front cap.

and now its being transformed for another new life with quite a different look..

we are closing in on finishing a 10 month conversion, putting the chassis under a 1954 Dodge Town Panel

fresh engine rebuild, fresh 4L60E xmsn, r/r front suspension, new brakes thru out,

no bolt untouched...https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/blazerf...bb05fd4868.jpgthe 97 body leaving its chassis

https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/blazerf...48fe892c7e.jpgfits rather snug, but thats always good

https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/blazerf...918642952f.jpgthe fit under the 54 windshield is exactly the same, 1/2 inch bead even across the bottom of the glass, rubber should close nicely

https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/blazerf...58aadb26fc.jpginstalling next week, front suspension ongoing this weekend

we are open to all comments and welcome advice, i am not very good with the 12volt side of things, let alone the computer, ecm, etc.

I like the direction that this is going in.

Oh yeah, this is gonna be cool.
