Old trucks. We love looking at ‘em, talking about them, and dreaming of building them. But one thing you gotta realize, these things are usually a “don’t meet your heroes” type situation. But then, there’s the Ring Brothers - a crew that rebuilds old cars and trucks to the way you WANT them to drive. No surprises. Other than power levels, maybe…

a whole lot of steering input to keep that thing going straight.

@titanary68 3 года назад

Well it is a short wheel base leaf sprung straight axle so that’s kinda what you get.

@storyteller1749 3 года назад

I'm thinking that Larry just isn't used to driving a vintage truck. I've driven old Blazers. And it doesn't take that much effort to keep them straight. When be.got on it he didn't seem to put as much effort into keeping it straight. So probably just nerves on his part. The chick didn't seem to be adjusting the steering as much as Larry and she was going alot slower. Just my humble opinion.

For that many hundreds of thousands of dollars, I was surprised when he said it's on a stock chassis. Given the level of this build, I thought for sure it would be on a modern one, the way Icon and so many others do it.

@nikolaip4947 3 года назад

Agreed. Honestly I wouldn't have thought it was a ring brothers build just looking it to be honest.

The more I think about it it does fit the ring brothers style. Attention to detail and build quality, but its still a vehicle that you can actually drive and enjoy without the fear of having a $500,000 ring brothers build

@crewcab1984rv 3 года назад

And I thought for sure it would have had an overdrive transmission instead of a 350TH 3 speed non overdrive transmission great can't freeway cruise without the motor sounding like the pistons are going to shoot out the motor.Get the HELL out here with a couple of $100,000.00 dollars.maybe $50,000.00-$65,000.00 at the most.No overdrive,No 1 ton axles like Dynatrac's

@scramblendan 2 года назад

Even with the bigger tires I was surprised to see how much correcting he was doing while going down a pretty straight road. Must be the original style steering box. That said, I have a lot of respect for the brothers. I like what she said here 31:55 ....funny

@rockkhound943 3 года назад

So that's worth about 80k to 125k depending on the consumer... Definitely no more .... stock front springs stock chassis stock body except the hood louvers. Total joke for 300 to 400k . Don't get me wrong it's absolutely beautiful and I love it but to think it's worth that much is ridiculous. I should be a millionaire long time ago .... charging for there name and one off parts .

@AbstractDreamz 11 месяцев назад

25:51 This is exactly why my 72 K5 Blazer is going to be going 2wd conversion but lifted pre-runner style. I want it to basically do coil over setup meant for autocross but with lift spindles. I love my Blazer but the ride and handling leaves a ton to be desired. I would love to figure out how to make it similar to my past couple SRT Jeeps in handling with AWD...that would be fantastic!

@JaredR1996 3 года назад

Beautiful K5. Makes me appreciate my C10 even more

@yeahitskimmel 3 года назад

Really is the body work that brings a build to that next level, only thing you can't buy online to bolt on. Wish I had learned the trade like my father, clean metal is where all the value is in classic cars because nobody wants to do body work.

@brandonplaisted8194 3 года назад

Well this ass back when trucks were trucks like you could off road on the weekends and drive it to work on Monday mentality when they built them back in the day. And it's just a piece of classic American muscle off road. Plus it rides like a modern day car.

at 31:33 the panel gaps on that photo are hilarious considering she leads into talking about how good the fitment is. Also, this thing doesn't even go down the road straight. Would be a great Blazer if it weren't priced like it is. Great for 65k and shit for 400k.

@titanary68 3 года назад

Yeah it’s super clean but there is absolutely nothing about this build that makes it worth 3-400k other than having their name on it. You could purchase every single part they used for under 100k even if you paid i high end body shop 20k for a paint job this blazer could be built for $120k max. Not to mention 3-400k for a basic 3spd turbo 350 and a NP205 transfer case? How about a 6L80 and a Atlas 2 for that kind of money.
