To slam (way more) or not to slam?

I have an original 72 2wd Blazer with all fully air bagged ART components, minor c notch, drop spindles blah blah blah you get the picture but I'd like to go lower with a dropmember and maybe a 4 link. Should I cut up this one or convert a 4wd? The previous owner had shaved the side makers, gas cap and door handles. Thanks for any input.

The purist in me says to cut up a 4x4 frame.

I guess an advantage of this as well is you could do all the work to the frame then just swap the body over when its done. There is always gonna be someone wanting to buy a 2wd frame.

I will second that someone will always be wanting to by a 2wd frame. In fact, I'd love to know what you'd consider selling the current chassis for?
