Agreed...that is SWEET! I'd love to see that done to a 2dr too. If I had a Blazer for off roading it would definitely be something I'd do. It looks really good man, can't wait to see the roll bar.

Hey man i like the idea of this i wish i had a blazer to cut up and try it with but since you are doing it. I was thinking to make it super clean you could buy a S10 bed and use the bed rail top as far as you needed and cut out the inner section part of the bed and have a built in bed in the back. Like this....
Oh and use a wide bed not a step side.
then use the bed on the inside and weld the front part of the bed to have the front vertical to it to give it a real finished and factory look. and you may be able to cut the back off the cab lay it over and weld it up to the slant and weld it to the bed inner layer. then you could use the extended cab inside panel and bend it and use the window and i think people would ask you if it came that way... but maybe you aren't looking for that. I just read your build stuff and boy the gears started turning and i took off on the thinking...

now that yellow blazer looks really clean i would like to see it up close and see if there is any defects but i can't see any in the pictures. maybe the only thing i would do different is try to keep the slant. but very clean i like the color too.....

I'm loving the red one on cardomain. I'm seriously considering doing this to my truck some time in the near future. X2 on some detailed pictures of the inside and the bed rails.
