Blue Blazers Please - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

stokers · 05-12-2008, 06:06 PM

I will be getting my '69 Blazer painted this week and am still uncertain as to what color I really want. I had intended to go with black but am now leaning toward blue. I know, there are a million shades of blue. I had seen a '69 Camaro that was painted Glacier Blue which was really pretty. I'm not worried about being a factory correct Blazer color, so if you got a blue Blazer please post or email a pic with color name.

Thanks,

Bob S.

Not quite as nice as the above ones but here ya go...

Factory dark blue, just a little oxidized.

Gary 70,

Is Quasar Blue a GMC color? I looked up 1970 GMC colors on tcpglobal.com and did not see it listed as a 1970 color for GMC. It looks alot like the Glacier Blue I mentioned in the original post. Really Nice!!

Thanks

Be sure to post up some before and after pics. I think choosing color is the hardest part of my entire build. Still haven't figured out what color.

Good luck on your quest.

Here are some I had on my harddrive. Some are from Ebay, CL, and maybe even elsewhere on this forum...I don't remember exactly. I definitly don't know any of the names of the colors.

My very first blazer was a dark blue with metal flakes and it was a good fit to these trucks,
the old girl looked great in blue.

Different blazer of mine that's blue...

Thanks for the pix. I finally had to make a decision and went with Lyndale Blue. It's a '67 corvette color and I think it will give it the look I was going for. Choosing a color turned out alot harder than I expected. Either way, I'll have a freshly painted Blazer in about a week. Can't complain about that.

I like blue... Stock color for '71. BC/CC. PPG code is 508 DK Blue Met.

AJs72K5 · 05-16-2008, 06:17 PM

I almost bought this one a couple of years ago. I really liked the blue and silver. But, a family crisis killed the sale at the last minute.

72BlckButy · 05-16-2008, 09:11 PM

Man... there's a lot of great looking blue Blazers on here!
