Customer in not going to finish the build, and the project is up for sale. I believe he is asking $9000or $10,000.

Got any pics of the current state of the truck?

Get it Bouncy! - Get it! Get it! Get it!

I think I will finish it. To much work has been done to stop now.

Hollywood,

I saw your truck up on the lift at Nathan's shop and I agree, a lot of work had been done and it was all nice work.

(I took lots of pics of the DM C4 install to help me with mine)

If that much work had been done to my truck, I don't think there would be any way I'd get rid of it. I think there were some other circumstances involved with your decision to sell but if it were mine................I'll stop now.

It'll be an awesome ride.
Keep us up to date.

I was a little disappointed that we weren't going to finish it. Maybe that'll change!?

red71cheyenne · 01-01-2008, 03:56 PM

Finish it, finish it, finish it.....

Pics!!!

Blaz-air · 01-01-2008, 04:23 PM

Hmmmmmmmm?

babyblueoval · 01-01-2008, 04:57 PM

Here's a few I took of the C4 install while it was still on the rack.

Hollywood, I'll be happy to send you these, and a few others if you want.

Post the rest, Jim! You know we are junkies for pictures!

I saw it at Nathan's shop also, and it just made me wish I had more money and time to dump into my Blazer project.

Hollywood Knight · 01-01-2008, 05:02 PM

That sounds good. That frame needs a lot of work I ALMOST FORGOT.

Yeah, it's not ready to go for sure but not too bad. You definitely need to weld on the c-notch stuff for your tie rod clearance. That might be a tiny weak spot.

The rest are mostly just for my use showing clearances and how everything fits but here they are:

And here's a few teasers for when I get started on mine:

She's not for sale .

LUV2XCLR8 · 01-06-2008, 04:12 AM

Didn't think so, but the way that it was quoted was confusing

*1sik52* · 11-25-2008, 11:01 AM

Any updates on this build??????

kyle4381 · 11-27-2008, 08:43 PM

Rick sold this project. Another one of Porterbuilt's customers bought it. No updates in the near future.

LUV2XCLR8 · 11-30-2008, 06:48 AM

TY for the feedback Kyle

bama51 · 12-04-2008, 10:40 AM

Nate, any updates you can give us?
