Once I did get it inside the shop I had to come to some kind of decision as to what I wanted this truck to be and to do. I have had this idea for a long time of building a 4X4 Hot Rod based on a big truck but making it size wise a little more user friendly, not as big as the rig it "Was" but bigger than shall we say "Normal" what ever normal is. I had a Big Block powered Blazer that I had bought some time ago just in case I came up with such a project. I orginal intended to use the Blazer chassis and just do a body swap, but this KB was too big for that. So I am going to use the KB chassis modified a lot, but converted with the Blazer 4X4 components.

Heres the BBC and tranny and transfer case. There going to set right there on that stand until I get around to detailing them.





Got it apart to some degree, got that "HUGE" six outta there and the tranny both of them together must have weighed at least 1,500 to 2,000 lbs. The rear end which was a two speed dually weighed a ton with tires and wheels. No wonder it was so hard to drag home.





Big Old Six left a heck of a hole.
