So I finally started...

ZEROpsi · 11-10-2007, 07:56 PM

New pics

The rear tubs are startin to take shape now, and are pretty much done, i didnt work friday, so i dont have fully done pics of them.

The outside is tied into the inside. so that the underside of teh tubs is completely sealed to the elements, and skinned smooth.

18incrawler · 11-10-2007, 08:35 PM

Great work guys ya'll are turning out one sick sfbd blazer! With the tubs that big is there any possiblilitie of a rear seat or is that out of the question.

kevdog · 11-10-2007, 08:42 PM

Awesome, awesome, awesome work guys! I'm at a loss for words!!

So Low Roller · 11-10-2007, 09:02 PM

holy tub!

MadMeador · 11-10-2007, 09:24 PM

This is going to be fukin sick dude....Nice job......

Kenny_Cox · 11-11-2007, 01:38 AM

oh wow thats looking good. and to the individual who asked about the rear seat. I am going to try to install one, but I dont know for sure yet what is going to be possible.

18incrawler · 11-11-2007, 04:19 AM

Ok as for alittle insight i have mine laid out on 20's and of course the rear is tubbed i have 2 cavi seats back there. Very tight and the sides of the seats push together. You could probly do it. When i bd mine for 22's i think ill take a bench seat out of a cavi and cut it down and use that. Just some food for thought.

the bench seat idea is what the plan is as of now, but, we have to get it done so that I can take measurements to see what is it that I am working with!

THRICE · 11-11-2007, 03:22 PM

Looking good so far. As for the back seat, Jeep Wrangler rear seats fit nice with little modification. Just an idea for ya.

thanks! I cant wait to get it back so that I can begin to put it back together, getting very excited. I hope to hit lots of shows next summer for sure!

blazerida88 · 11-11-2007, 11:04 PM

awesome man, lookin soooooo sic

bigblock10 · 11-12-2007, 05:06 PM

You still need the seats out of the back of my Firebird to test fit? o and i need the other door am all donde saving the parts that you gave me

DEREK

Kenny_Cox · 11-12-2007, 05:29 PM

I called you yesterday! Ill try again tomorrow.

Just_Bag_it · 11-13-2007, 05:54 PM

This is coming together really nice Kenny! It's too bad you won't be able to roll in it til next year, but well worth the wait!

Kenny_Cox · 11-14-2007, 12:07 AM

shit joe, it should be done by show season, and thats all that matters. I get laid off, so thats lots of time to get everything done! small update, talked to richie and taylor today, I SHOULD be picking everything up next weekend *fingers crossed*. I have to buy a fuel cell so they can get it mounted, then should be good to go! I HOPE to fit some sort of seat, but, they think itll be tough, anything can be done though right?!

Kenny_Cox · 11-15-2007, 02:33 AM

So I figured the thread was getting a little boring and id post some pictures, granted, they are nothing too special, but, itll have to do for now! First up we have some air ride stuff! These are photos of the RidePro setup that is being given to me by my father, for the time being... Cannot pass up free stuff thats for sure, just snapped a couple photos of the compressor, the big reds, and the controller, even has the key fob!

Moving on to some interior goodies, they are just the boxes, but you get the point. Alpine F1, some of you know of the stuff, some dont, regarded by some as top of the line. Others may disagree, but I cannot wait to get it installed.

The F1 headunit will be controlling everything, the drivers I plan to go with for the two way front stage are as follows:
Tweeter: Hertz Mille ML280s

Mid-Bass: Dynaudio MW172, this is an 8 inch driver, will need some modification to the mounting baffle for sure, but intend on keeping it behind the stock door panel!

For amplification, TRU technology will provide the power for all the speakers, later on, the substage will be created, but at first nothing will be needed. The amp is a B-4100 from the billet series, makes a very generous 100 watts by 4.

not the greatest picture I understand, but they look like that!
as you can see, I promised some updates, and I have given updates, enjoy!

thanks a lot man! and im sure in the end ur gonna be grinning ear to ear for the whole year haha

Kenny_Cox · 11-16-2007, 11:38 AM

definitely! I hope to get to meet a lot of the forum members in person once its done, I will be hitting a LOT of shows next season! I would imagine that barely legal will post some new pictures in the next couple days, so stay posted!

ZEROpsi · 11-16-2007, 04:14 PM

yea, new pics will probably pop up next week sometime....

i took today off to rake my damn yard, i have a few acres of lawn, and you couldnt see any grass........just leaves, so i had to get it done today lol

josh has been bustin ass on the sheetmetal work tho, and its comeing great. We flipped the frame over the other day, and i welded up the underside of the frame too, so its getting really really really really really close

blazerida88 · 11-16-2007, 08:22 PM

awesome, its lookin great

Kenny_Cox · 11-17-2007, 12:33 PM

Well I had this idea going through my cluttered mess of a head the other day, figured Id get some opinions on it. What if I went with the Envoy front end conversion? I have always liked it, and its just a thought on the back burner right now, it would be the last thing getting done, what do you all think? Blazer front end, or envoy front end?

2ToneS10 · 11-17-2007, 06:33 PM

stick with the rendered version of the truck and ur ****ing set for life....shits gonna blow up when the truck hits the scene in the face at shows

Kenny_Cox · 11-17-2007, 07:40 PM

ok lol

Just_Bag_it · 11-18-2007, 05:04 PM

Yeah agreed. I would say leave it. Cause like 2tone said, The way the truck is supposed to be right now is gonna take the scene by storm. LEAVE IT. lol

OK I am, I dont really like the envoy front end now that I look at them, the blazer one can look better, get some diamond clear headlights, some clear corners, and some HIDs and we're set

2ToneS10 · 11-18-2007, 06:21 PM

mMmMm hid's.............

....i want someeeeeee

ZEROpsi · 11-20-2007, 07:29 PM

hey guys, got some new pics up.

Rolled a notch cover, and i mean rolled it lol. It looks like a tital wave when its fully pushed into place. Flipped the frame and welded the underside today also.

Got the tranny tunnel and raised the metal above the tranny also today, sorry the pics are from friday of last week, so it dosent show everything.....but some more new ones tommorrow.

2ToneS10 · 11-20-2007, 07:55 PM
