Re: Anyone know whose Blazer this is?

I've never seen it before. Where did you get that pic? I'd take it but why is the back seat so far back?

Re: Anyone know whose Blazer this is?

I got that picture off of ebay a few years ago. I'm pretty sure a link to it was posted on here, but can't say for sure. I do recall it had a real fancy interior.

Yeah, I got the pic from crzngmychvy's website.
One of the guys on the photoshop forum did some color changes for me but this one is pretty close so I was just trying to get a better quality pic so the color could be tweaked a little better.

Simon,

I absolutely love that Blazer. I carry a copy of that one with me everywhere so when someone asks what mine will look like I tell them it will be similar to "this" one.
I have 4 or 5 pics of it but I'd love to have some better quality ones.
The images I have a 640x480.
The color that is in my head that I'm gonna use is the color of my beetle in my avatar. I'm going for an awesome rig when I tow it to car shows.

Jim

I saw a while back there was truck on craigslist and that blazer was in the background. The listing said the blazer wasn't for sale. They had obviously been receiving more inquiries about the blazer than the truck.

Re: Anyone know whose Blazer this is?

I would have to agree. That looks like the one but I'm looking for exterior pics so I can have them photoshopped closer to what I want.
I need to break down and just have a rendering.
I sent Carter an email but haven't heard back from him yet.

This is what 75silverstep did for me. It gives me a very good idea, I'm just trying to find some better quality pics so the end result will be better.



This is the style I'm looking for on the paint but mine will have a '68 front end.
(and it won't be green and silver)

Re: Anyone know whose Blazer this is?

That bottom pic was done by Zumo for my 72 I sold to 5150, I too was going to
go with a 68 nose. It's Ironic that I ended up with one w/ the nose already done.

Do you happen to have a larger image of that rendering?

I love your taste!

Re: Anyone know whose Blazer this is?

I believe so, he did it for a chop contest and used all the colors and specs
I asked for. It was the only way for me to score a rendering at that time.

PM me your e-mail and I will send it to ya. (I have a 1280 x 960)

Re: Anyone know whose Blazer this is?

If you find out if it is for sale, let me know. The wife wants a new house, but we might have to re-prioritize...

I'm pretty sure that's where I got my pics from.
But now I can read the article again.

Hey crzng- do you have any pics of that blue one with the top on? Curious what the shaved drip rails look like. Kinda hard to tell in the ones from the article.

Thanks -Chris
