New Member From Maryland with a new '72 Blazer!
Hello all! My name's Will, I'm from New Orleans, Louisiana, hense NOLA tag, and I live in Annapolis, Maryland. My brother and I found this beaut on Craigslist and fell in love. It's a '72 with the inline 6 currently on a trailer headed my way but I added some pictures from the original owner to give everyone a little taste. We're keeping the six and detailing the engine compartment to the gills for the time being. We see it as a nice beach cruiser build. However, I will be starting my radio install ASAP so if anyone has any pointers or a buildup I can look at don't hesitate to shoot it my way. Thanks and enjoy! -Will

Re: New Member From Maryland with a new '72 Blazer!
I like the painted bumpers. They just look like dull aluminum like the grill. Nice cheap alternative to chrome ones - I might have to try that with mine.
Can you get another shot of the gauges? I want to see how you did the blue in there... |

Re: New Member From Maryland with a new '72 Blazer!
Yes, unfortunately some situations quickly changed and I need something different. If I had a driveway, I'd keep her. My brother and I bought it and intended to share because he is stationed nearby me. However, he is getting stationed in Florida so we obviously aren't going to be sharing a car and I have no where to store it. We'll see. We're trying to figure it out at the moment.
