My '72 CST is bronze with a white top and white/orange/black highlander interior. I thoughtit was butt ugly when I got it, now I think I will try to find repro covers to match. Your blaze looks great, all white.

That is a sweet Blazer. Someone around here has a scan of a Highlander brochure. I'm sure they will share it.

Welcome to the board!

72addict,
I can't find repros in plaid.
Are your inserts still in good shape?
I talked to two trim shops that said
they can use my old plaid and use
new vinyl for the other part.
Do you have any pics ? Are these
Highlanders only 72's and how many
did they make ? Any Blazer Gurus on
this board ?

NO, mine are toast. Somebody will pop them someday, RIGHT?

You might try matching it to a later model fabric. My Dad had a 78 (I think) Blazer w/Silverado trim. It had a tan interior, but the seats had plaid that was that same pattern or very close to it. It might be worth a look!
Good Luck!

I thought that Frank's PICKMUP was selling some. Maybe they were just tweed though.

Hatguy,
I'm on the west side, actually out in Aledo, but not many folks know where that is, unless they live around FW. Where are you?
