How about a K5 Blazer dually?
« on: August 17, 2007, 09:07:53 am »
I first saw this thing about 9 or 10 months ago sitting outside a bodyshop in a small North Texas town about 80 miles from here. It was the factory black and silver 2-tone paint job and already had the dually fenders and rear axle on it. A couple months later I passed that bodyshop again and it was outside in full primer with the dually fenders off, no doubt almost ready to be sprayed. I didn't have a camera on me either time I saw it at the bodyshop, so I was never able to snap a pic. Back in April I was driving through an even smaller town (less than 1,000 pop) about 30 miles the other direction from here and spotted it sitting outside a little diner. I whipped around and snapped a few pics of it then. These were taken a month later in May in the Sam's Club parking lot here in town. I haven't seen it since, but I've heard of a few people seeing it running around.

This thing is so cool, but it really makes me want to do a lowered 2wd version...  ;D

I think Duallys in general look weird from the front/back, but it does look cool.

I don't think it'd look so wierd head-on if it were slammed.
