square bodies look better, all of the body and paint on that truck was GREAT the last time i saw it and the sqare body trucks are a lot lighter. there are guys that gut them down to 2,500 lbs.

I dunno man. I still like the newer ones. Actually i was looking at an extreme blazer roller the other day. It was a V6 5sp but it looked pretty cool. A blown LS in that would be pretty badass.

700lbs lighter than my truck.

Buy it, swap the motor, drop it off with KB, and roll it! A nice 4.8 with 2 tiny turbos would be a bad *** little ride that probably get mid 20s MPG.

Procharger would be fun and would not have to deal with all the BS turbo piping.
