I am making a Avalanche from my 87 Sub "The Turd". I will call it Turdvalanche.
Has anyone done it yet?

I had some problems with rusted fuel lines and brake lines.
THe part store doesn't sell the tank to filter line so I cut the line and put some 5/8" rubber fuel line where the leak was. I used about 3' of rubber line with hose clamps. I will replace them with injector clamps. Any problem with this? It is a TBI 350.

Are you talking about just doing a front clip conversion, or are you actually going to turn the rear end into a truck bed??

Probably OK with rubber fuel line. Max pressure on TBI is 13 psi.

I cut the back off so it is like a 4dr Blazer or an Avalanche.

How hard was it to do? did you fit a blazer cap on it? I too am looking to do this conversion, was just wondering how much work it is and how you get the cap to fit and line up.

It would of been alot easier/faster had I had a tourch. I used hammer and chisel, hack saw with dull blade and skill saw with a metal blade.
I don't know if a Blaze cap will work or not.
It is still a work in progress. I have a lot of work to get it done.
I think I should use a rollber (from a Blazer maybe) as the main supports, in the back by the tailgate were cut off.
Right now the roof is bent down is the back of the cab now. I want to make a door or something that can be removed so the kids can ride in the 3rd seat still be able to put a piece of plywood in with the tailgate up.

If I had a welder, things would be a lot easier.

do u have any pics u can post?, i'd love to see them

I posted some pics

I just saw a burb with the back chopped like yours last weekend! West central MO. Didn't get a good look at the quality of work though. Assumed it was pretty rough, just a hillbilly party wagon.

Hey Man, Looks Good, I Did The Same Thing To Mine About A Year Ago

Any pic's?
