Looks great. The new wheels really make it look top complete!

Why is your "CST" badge above the door handle?

Looks great. I bet it does ride better, should handle better too. PM mudder on how to keep those wheels in pristine condition. He uses some cool stuff.

Re: 2100 more reasons to love my blazer

NO idea on why the cst badge is placed there. It was originally an orange cst packaged blazer, there is a yellow door on the passenger side and a blue one on the drivers, im sure he just forgot where the badges went.


If you look close you can see the passenger side fender is a repro and the po put 2 8/350 badges on just the pass fender? I need to find a nice set of the 4 wheel drive badges for it. I didnt even notice the 2 emblems until after body and during reassmbly, otherwise i would have filled the extra holes

Ill bet those are GMC doors... thats where the GMC 'Custom'
emblems go. Someone probably put the cst emblems there because they fit the holes.
