Re: Shorty Sub?

I often have thought about a shortened suburban,sort of a '65 Blazer.
I don't have a shop, or money or knowledge and skills to pull that off, so its a pipe dream.
I have seen pics of a few , they look a little weird to me, like someone needed to think more about proportions.

Re: Shorty Sub?

Yes, I have a "in process" '65 Blazer. I've been away from the forum for a few years. I was busy with house rehabs but took a break in 2017. Got things moving again, painted firewall and dash, finished wood floor in back and raptor'd it, now plugging away at wiring, brake and fuel lines. Hope to stay in touch, Tom

Re: Shorty Sub?

Yes, that's me! I don't mean to hijack the thread...When a get a moment I'll fire up the old post if I can and add new photos. Does anyone know the status of the twisted little sister burb? Has anyone continued the build? It was a very exciting build to follow!
