Default Blazer Shell Idea

So the local pull and save has a few 2 door blazers, almost all with complete interiors and almost all scribbled cash for clunkers on the windshield...

Before this turns into a cash for clunkers, hear me out.....

What would be the degree of difficulty and the effectiveness of this:

Buying a shell....
Buying another axle...
Basically doing a custom but well built lift on a two door....
Running about 35 in tires....

Problems I see are:
Cost
Drivetrain
Fabbing...

This is just one Idea I had while looking through the yard the other day... I would really love to do something like this although school takes up about 75% of my time and then the rest is given to the fiancee and the job....

there is a guy with an 84 k series blazer with a 2 door 96 shell (lime even!) sitting in place of the old square body.

It's wicked bad!

not trying to kick your feet out from under you, while you're still standing on that ladder, but did you even get your red beast done yet?
