Nice work there, better than most I've seen done like that. I was thinking most people start with square and Mapp and bend it the cut it in half to get two frame rails, b ut shoot your doing good like that.

Ha ha funny you mention that cause after I got about halfway thru welding it I realized it would have been much easier doing it that way. The one thing that is nice about welding the sections together is that the cross section doesn't change size or get pinched or narrow where the bend would be. I might make another one if this one turns out good and try the bending method on it.

HOLY CHIT DUDE! That's a sweet looking Chevy you got there! These 1.5's are becoming the new craze.
Your taillights are on sideways by the way.
It's also not a Blazer; did those emblems come with that pro-line body? Because it's too long to be a Blazer.
I might have to model one of my Chevy's after this.

Whoops I guess they are backwards... um as far as the blazer emblems they came with the proline body I might have to make my own emblems as I agree with ya it's way too long to be a blazer. I was also thinking about putting in round headlights to make it look more like a 78 or 79 pickup. Here's a couple more in the snow. Gotta add some more details to it too like mirrors and stuff. What do you make your mirrors out of?
