Don't know much about Blazers. Is a single wall top a good thing, is there a double wall top?

Yes to both. Single walls are nice as they 1) have attachment bolts that don't require the removal of the rear trim panels on CST models and 2) don't suffer from a roof sag or dip. Single wall tops only for part of the 72 model year and (thus far) only convincingly installed on flint built k5s. K5s with double wall tops came with a speaker mounted below the dash unlike single wall k5s where the speaker is in the typical location for a pickup.

I'm thinking hidden highlander here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Chevrolet-Bl...m=112147768758

Nice light yellow, slider windows.

Might just be, but its pretty thin evidence considering it's condition.

SS Tim · 09-26-2016, 04:42 PM

Great reference pictures of a now sold Orange Plaid back seat under a period plastic cover. Scroll work detail is awesome!

Nice to see! Light Yellow and gray plaid is a great combo.

Chulisohombre · 10-01-2016, 08:57 AM

Having the spid definitely helps

**DeadheadNM** · 09-24-2016, 10:24 PM

one more

**DeadheadNM** · 09-26-2016, 09:22 PM

LOL! I was going to post pics of the same...

**DeadheadNM** · 10-04-2016, 12:07 AM

Here's an example (NOT from said supplier above) that is headed my way - fronts to follow but not completed.

jondancer · 10-17-2016, 09:09 AM

Anymore pics ?

ClassicStyle · 10-18-2016, 12:25 AM

Mine are like 4 months out. But I feel like they're 12.

Sms is sending me a sample of the fabric currently in production.

ClassicStyle · 10-26-2016, 01:42 AM

Hated to do it as tim is so helpful, but swclassic said id have a highlander set on my door step in two weeks.

We'll see how they look in two weeks I'll report back.

excited to be able to drive the truck without being uncomfortable, has aftermarket seats in it now that are absolutely horrible. Weather is cooling down, should be great.

Chulisohombre · 10-26-2016, 06:45 AM

Classic style. That'll be nice to see. There were some seats for sale close to me but they wanted 800 bucks. Green plaid. Wouldn't have matched my truck but I love the look. I'm sure someone will pick them up quick. That stuff doesn't last long around here.

**DeadheadNM** · 11-06-2016, 07:35 PM

Recent find by another board member - wasn't much left

SS Tim · 11-06-2016, 07:36 PM

So has anyone found an original Blazer like this in the wild?
