Nothing is complete yet. Everytime I get around to starting/finishing this project... something happens. Since the Blazer was totaled and I'm now building the Wagon - this project is on hold again, but don't fret... once the wagon is done, I MUST have louvers for it... so give it a lil more time.
Its got style... its got class...
It goes the extra mile... and still kicks @ss.

I have a wagon and SX, I would really want side and rear for SX and would put $$ up front if need be.  Possible for wagon as well if you get around to it.  Keep up the amazing work, you'll get around to 'em eventually. (if we keep bugging you enough)

I'd bet you could prepay for a set of these and get them sooner.
Just send $1000 and Mav will send you the change.

HAHA sounds like you have had some experience in prepayment.  Trust me I understand from working at a bank.  You just take your time, dont rush with them.  Make sure they are purty.

Yes so far, but I'm finding it really hard to weld with my welder. My settings are either too hot or too cool. I have considered a really thing stainless steel, but the weight would be too much for the hatch supports.

I have also been tinkering with the idea of a stainless frame... and fiberglass wings. They would be very durable and light weight that way with no vibrating... even if you have a bangin' sound system.

The final option is straight fiberglass.... I have everything for the fiberglass molding, but I haven't started it yet. The garage has been too cluttered with my car projects.

Had the Blazer not been wrecked and totaled.... and had I not been scrambling the last few months... I'd have already them done. Now that I have a running wagon... I'm more excited about wagon louvers, lol!

Dude, you are just cruisin' for a bruisin' from these fine folks if you don't stop teasing them. You know that, right? :)

But I just can't help it... it's like chomping on spicey chips and salsa in front of a small baby... you feel bad of course because you know you're making the baby hungry... and baby really wants it.... so with an evil grin, you just give baby a dab and it really p*sses the baby off because not only is his/her mouth on fire now and you genuinely feel bad.... but you simply can't help laughing hysterically on the inside.... or out, LMAO!

Poor poor baby... here's a chew cracker and some milk... you'll be fine.

Which brings me to the next point....

Oh come now...they won't hurt him too badly. They need him alive to finish the project so they can get some :P

Whatcha gonna DO about it? Muahahahaahahahahahahahaha

stop teasing them.

You're no fun... I do have all weekend off with nothing planned besides Shelly's front end (which I have down to a science now)... your stuff will be done before the weekend hits - unless of course you think of something else.... but I think we have a good project lined up.

Muah... muahahaha.... MUAHAHHAAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
