i figured id post this here cause its not even close to being a blazer. well i work at a body shop, as some of you may already know, and i just finished with a customers eclipse. it got a new hood and bumper, but the old ones wern't that bad. so i started thinking...

before
after

had to get the blazer in there! it pretty much fit right on ecept for the hood line which im going to weld the eclipse hood on the front of mine. and under the headlights, where im goning to 'glass the sides of the escort bumper to the eclipse one. the best part is it was all free!

ha ha thanks man! im also going to use the eclipse hood bubble to cover up the hole in the hood on the sonoma. i think its just the right size. i believe in the old school rat rodding ways: junk yards, fabrication, and whatever i can get my hands on to make a custom ride.

I dunno, I kinda like the hole in the hood. It's kinda old school. Maybe you can fabricate some plexiglass to cover the hole when it rains, snows, etc and then leave it off during the nice days to get the extra forced induction. Have some sort of clamp to hold it on under the hood so you have to take the cover on/off from under the hood. Or maybe just make a scoop out of it.

that'd be cool! i kinda like the intake sticking out the hood too. it kinda makes it look like its got some balls. one guy asked me if it was a drag racing truck cause the engine was coming out the hood and he thought it was a big motor.
