Yeah i know its not a Blazer but its still pretty neat and it has a chevy heart w/ a blower. This is my friend Brian's Sami that he built basically from the ground up. It was featured in Off-Roading Magazine. Its the only sami i have ever seen on 46 inch tires, and when i would stand infront of it the head lights would look me right in the eyes and i'm over 6 feet tall. Definately not practical and he sold it because he couldn't find any insurance company that would insure it. lol. Check out the attachment for the pic.
