Re: Pics of my 72

That would be great if you could show more detail. I really like how the seats lift forward. I'm guessing the brackets are from a YJ? Sweet truck BTW.

Dang, what a nice Blazer, working on a 69 restomod myself, if I can ask how much do you have in that awesome dash cluster? Are those phantom gauges?

Re: Pics of my 72

The gauges are ultralites and I probably have about $500 in it. I did the dash about three years ago so i don't exactly remember. I took a stock dash and had my freind who worked at a elevator interior company use their cnc punch to punch the gauge holes out of polished stainless and mounted that to the stock dash.

Re: Pics of my 72

Any luck on getting some more photos of the modded Jeep seat brackets? I am getting ready to bolt in some new seats and would like to use this idea, but I'd rather steal your work than reinvent the wheel

Thanks,
Herb

Re: Pics of my 72

That is awesome. I really like the instrument panel.
Excellent job.
I couldn't count how many times I've went back and looked at it.

Re: Pics of my 72

Here are two pictures I have of the seat. The seats are bestop brand for a jeep wrangler YJ, the brackest are for a jeep YJ as well. I had to drill the bottom rivets out and make my own mounting plate that bolts to the factory holes on the blazer. You can see where the top of the bracket near the seat still has the rivets and the bottom near the bottom plate I made is bolted. They work really well, both seats fold forward and they have ajustable sliders as well.

The cage is a S/W cage that I had to do extensive modification to in order to get the look I wanted. If I were to do it again I would have just bought the pipe and bent my own.
