Re: 1971 K5 Blazer - down under
So you decided on hugger orange? Pictures might be deceiving on actual color. But, I like it.

Re: 1971 K5 Blazer - down under
Got one of the new US Mags Scottsdale rims, 17 x 9 to trial fit. Fit is good, I just wish it was a stepped lip, thoughts?

Re: 1971 K5 Blazer - down under
I'd have a better understanding once the Blazer is assembled and painted but as shown I think it looks good.

Re: 1971 K5 Blazer - down under
Test fit install of side moldings to set the paint lines
Now I need to finalise change from double wall to single wall, then it can be painted. Looking for photos, and measurements for where the cage nuts go. Last edited by 68ls1; 09-08-2025 at 03:29 AM. |
