I got it today!
Well my 1972 Blazer arrived today from New Mexico and here it is.
    I want to do body and paint first. No rust on this one but some dents. I pulled the front carpets back and looked good so far. Im gonna change the interior to blue with blue carpet. Last edited by BBrendal; 12-14-2010 at 06:43 PM. Reason: pics not sowing up. |

Re: I got it today!
i really like the blue, looks great. Somebody tell me the story on the steering wheel, i see a lot of them on blazers, mine has one, but my guess is they are not stock?

Those steering wheels are from the 88-94 era Chevy pickups, better looking than the 2nd generation Camaro wheels that some put on... if anyone reading this has one, don't hate me for saying that- its just not my thing. |

Re: I got it today!
Very nice. I bet that paint will shine up pretty good with some polishing compound and a coat of wax.
1971k567cam -For weather stripping, check with Wes at http://www.classicheartbeat.com/ in Olympia. He'll get you what you need.

Re: I got it today!
Nice K5! I've got one of those steering wheels on the shelf waiting to go on my K5 soon. I think they look just right on a 1st gen. A little smaller, and no cracks!

Re: I got it today!
Nice blazer, I dig the white with the blue hounds tooth seats. My 72 is same blue, I was going to change color but not now after seeing yours. I think its one of the best colors with the white top.
