Blazer with upper trim

Here is a Blazer on Ebay that has the upper trim. I always thought that they didn't come that way. This one looks factory - but must not be. It looks good though, can't tell it wasn't stock.

i have seen that on the board before. i'm pretty sure it was decided it was non-original, but a nicely done mod to a nice truck.

I thought the upper trim was just on two tone trucks, and the blazers never came two tone- cause then you would HAVE to get a white top- black would look weird!

1970blazin, You can do a 2 tone with a black top.Paint the blazer black,and the area between the moldings white.Maybe a star on the door,and a light bar on the roof?

I remember seeing it on CCTOL.com for a long time with an asking price around $25k........it is not there now...........can you tell me where you found that pic? I remember the seller had a site with a ton of pictures of it, and I'd like to find that link again........the pic you attaches is low res....

Thnks for your help,
Davy

72c5, I saw it on Ebay and on for sale on a web stie. Same price you remember. I can email pics them to you, send me an email at shawnstorhaug@hotmail.com if interested in pics.
If I remember right I had to really shrink that pic to post it on the board, but I should have the original pic and more at my computer at home.

Shawn

blazer upper trim

You can get the stock upper trim from Mikes truck shop his number is 1-916-781 2626

If you have a blazer with stock upper trim you can replace, if not stock as part of the cst package holes will need to be drilled unless you use the sticky's

trim

The few blazers that came with trim or had it added have always been eye catching the upper trim really makes them look sharp
