Thread: Doug or JeepistDoug/IA Shortened M715

  1. #1

    Default Doug or JeepistDoug/IA Shortened M715

    Been poking around the site galleries and found a few pics of Dougs shortened Blazer sized M715, but I can't find any detailed pics or a build. Does anyone have any good pictures taken or saved of how he cut it down? Looks like he hasn't been on since Oct 2016

    Doug has been away for a while. I think he set the rear shackle hanger as close as he could to the truck body and then set everything up/starting cutting. I can try and ask him if he has anything to add to that or if he has any pictures of the frame work.

    The frame shortening isn't too bad, although I saw he used new steel from the cab back.

    I'm more interested in the body, looks like he cut out the back of the cab and front of the bed and attached them to each other

    Ah yes, the Dougy Buggy. He had it at the 2004 and 2006 FE's. I have some pictures at home that show him driving all the kids around. I think they will show how he did the cab back to bed interface.
    Remember if you didn't build it you can't call it yours.

    These two pictures are the best ones of the interior I got from the 2006 FE. The two kids in the back seat are starting college this month by the way.

    Here are all the kids in the Buggy at the 2004 FE:

    I'm not getting an "X" or a upgrade to 500 for 3rd party hosting, it's just not in the thread at all. Weird.

    They were there when I posted it the other night. Let me try and edit it again. Nope, the link is embedded in the post, but no pictures. I had uploaded the pictures to an album I made in my profile and then linked to them. I saw them after I posted. Really.
