Back in a Blazer!
I regretted selling my 1971 Jimmy...but it was just too damn big with tons, lockers and 38's for an old man!
I was at a conference in Iowa and found a "deal"... bagged my return flight and drove it home 1200 miles in 24 hours! averaged close to 16mpg without a single hiccup! 1972 Blazer CST Rust Free (by my standards-some surface rust on bottom of rockers) Several new body panels LT1 swap TH350 NP205 New tires Decent Interior UGLY ASS Wrap (although I sometimes find myself wanting to keep it and grow a mullet) Here is what's under the wrap Who knows where I will go with it... No more lifts, lockers etc for me. just cruising for fun. Just thought I'd say hello! Adam

Re: Back in a Blazer!
Looks like a pretty decent rig. I don't think I could handle the wrap either. Enjoy.

Re: Back in a Blazer!
Looks nice although I think you should have explored the mullet direction a bit more

I put in my vote for a mullet.

Re: Back in a Blazer!
You gotta keep the wrap it is tacky and loud but would be a blast get an 8 track player with a journey or some other Freedom Rock and turn it up on your home speakers laying in the back.
