Project:: ILLUSION

Illusion-something that deceives by producing a false or misleading impression of reality

This project started years ago and has a story behind it. I bought the blazer to complete something that was never finished in prior project that was sold do the lack of experience on my end and my father being injured.

During the course of this project I worked full time and earned a degree in mechanical engineering. Which consumed a lot build time, plus got side tracked by another project.

I am hoping to post updates often.

Sounds like me bro. I'm 7 yrs into my C-10 build but I also got a Mechanical Engineering degree in the middle there.

Good Luck, where you from?

If you get half your ideas into metal this gonna be a show stopper. Good luck and wish you the best.

Now there is a few issues I need to iron out. Probably will end up replacing the ball joints with Uni-Balls, but still a lot of decisions to make. Hoping to get K-Member finished up and get motor mounts, and rack installed.

This week has been crazy and haven't had much extra time let alone time to work on the blazer. Hoping to log some hours this weekend and will have updates. What's everyone think of the progress so far?

Looks great. If it comes out anything like the rendering its going to be sick.

mother of god thats bad ass!
