Re: What do you think of this Blazer?

Looks like a lot of work went into it. The red interior is a little bright for my taste. But overall, I'd give it a thumbs up!

Re: What do you think of this Blazer?

I agree with AJ on the interior but the rest looks really good almost makes me want to paint mine that color when I get that far.

Re: What do you think of this Blazer?

I like it. If it were mine, I'd bag it and put some bigger rims on it though. I do like the red.

Re: What do you think of this Blazer?

To correct Blue thunder, it's pronounced "eh". NOT "ay". "Ay" is what they say on boats "ay matey".... That's how we Canadians say it, eh?

Re: What do you think of this Blazer?

It is a very nice blazer. The owner is from the Nashville area. I saw it at the Goodguys Nashville show.

Re: What do you think of this Blazer?

I think its extremely nice! Personally I would have gone with something other than red, but to each his own. Looks like great craftmanship.

Sweet ride, i agree on the interior though. The silver looks like it was hard to spray but it came out good.

Wow, that is a nice ride. I may retract my thought about lowering it more after seeing the rest of those photos.

Re: What do you think of this Blazer?

yep 72gmcshorty, but I think that's because it's a cowl hood. most I've seen that were steel had that extra brace there.
