He sure can it just depends on how many different directions he lets him self get pulled in. He is alot like me in that his mind never stops going so you are always putting alot of irons in the fire. But from what we have all seen he is one heck of a blacksmith!

Re: Porterbuilt Blazer Project

That blazer is B-E-A-utiful! As for the renderings, what do they cost, and youll be doing one of mine soon no matter what! And Porterbuilt, you say you dont have enough employees, but dont want to be bossing them around. Well, i can work very well by myself, and you dont need to keep on me. Im im love with your shop, and think id be a good fit.

Re: Porterbuilt Blazer Project

what kind of gauge pod are you planning to use? it looks very sporty and fitting from the renderings...

How many years has it been in the works??!!
Will it ever be finished...really?

Are you going to put it in Powerama? I may be able to help you with transportation, depending on what the new boss says.
We'll talk soon.

Re: Porterbuilt Blazer Project

We are just now getting into it. It's been in the shop for a little while but hasn't had much attention.

We will have all the metalwork, assembly, and body work done and sealed up in a black primer so it can be in our booth at Goodguy's Southwest Nats.

The cluster in the rendering is a Dakota Digital... Carter just threw it in there, but it does look like it fits!

Re: Porterbuilt Blazer Project

A little more progress... braced up the bed-sides and removed the outer skins. The fun part will be removing the skins from the donor panels without causing too much harm!
