I’ve done some sketchy stuff. But not to this level. Could just be someone’s woods truck. What I can’t get over is that they want 2k for it. And how do they know it has been driven 100k miles????

Its got Vbars, missing the blazer.. topper.. thingy windows, probably shot them out for fun I mean. That diamond plate mess had to have been lengthy, but not lengthy enough you can see where they just snip it randomly and curl it.. and that grab handle tho..

the blue paint is for good luck so his buddies bronco, in much better shape, can save him. its got a winch on the front, it has decent panels(with blue paint), but thats about it.

also why would you put your instrumentation to the right of your view, but keep your tachometer in front of you... and its auto.

Also, Saddam hussein called and wants his sarin gas back, it appears the seats are holding that, asbestos for flame retardation, and either cement dust or meth residue. But, maybe, is it too much to ask for both?

im not one to judge anothers pride and joy, but there IS a level of blatant disrespect or stupidity that you can cross and I feel i hold enough back ima throw shade. and him chopping up a good square, a blazer infact, for what i can only imagine are his sexual fetishes.


Also, ps, i might not be bigger, but if he needed the grab handle on a stock lift blazer and I can get in 4x4 k25 with no floor im inclined to think I may be taller, NOT withstanding my truck is bigger. Thats how you guys fight these things, right? Swordfish style, but with the trucks?

Based on width and length, how much would you wanna bet that diamond plate is off some old toolbox... look at how deep it is where it curls back under the dash.

It makes more sense than buying as a sheet, if somehow the thought made sense to begin with.

We call that handle a "oh ****" bar, for when you do a jump in it.

Remember that show that Jesse James had for a while, the one where he created weird purpose built cars? There was an episode in which he cut up (destroyed) an SS El Camino. While he was working on it he said something that stuck with me, he said “I know this bothers a lot of purists that I’m cutting up a classic car, but look at it this way, if you own one of these yours is worth more now because there’s one less in existence.”

So now every time I see a square hack job like this one I mentally thank the person responsible for adding a few bucks to the value of mine.
