finally got around to doing some work. its now about 105" wheel base. Now have a longer list of things to finish: bolt up hangers, find shackle reverse for rear, swap 52's for 56's, re-do exhaust, mount shocks, change u-joints in the (blazer) driveine, install driveline,find gas tank & install or wait until I can afford propane. cut off the remainder of frame. etc....... also buy new drill, since I burned mine up drilling out the rivets

Yea I would like to get it done asap, but I strained my back, so its been slow going the last few days. Also chasing around my 2year old daughter has taken over "projects" It only took me 4 months to start working on it again

correction: its 115" w-base not 105, but I got around to bolting up the front hangers, shocks, re-routed the exhaust, found out the blazer driveline is to short. Who can shorten a driveline? for an affordable price or trade?

not much of a build update, but thought I would share what the big brown truck brought today finally sold enough truck "stuff" to get the funds together, still need to pick up a tank I was like a kid on christmas pulling out all the parts, but I will have to call 'em, cause I did'nt get any stickers?

well its been awhile since an update: propane is all installed and runs AWESOME, the best it has ever ran! swapped the 52's for 56's & shackle flip, changed out altenator, found a "used" driveline that is close enough for now, when it breaks I'll get a new one made? still have a list of to-do/fix find the electrical gremlin, new battery, decide on what to do with steering? and of course the never ending little stuff. heres a few driveway "flex" pics
