HYPERMAN · 01-04-2003, 06:54 PM

imaindianoutlaw · 01-04-2003, 07:27 PM

makes me want to start smoking weed! Weird lookin thing!

da-burb · 01-04-2003, 08:26 PM

Here is one from a car show last August. I talked to the young guy about his truck. And it is the right color for me too!

da-burb · 01-04-2003, 08:28 PM

And another. I might have the number of a guy with a NOS Eagles decal set also. Maybe I should get it for one of the burbs....

chevy_fatman · 01-04-2003, 09:42 PM

If you don't stand out by driving an old truck like that, the decals would sure bring the attention

nice trucks!

ChevLoRay · 01-05-2003, 07:38 AM

I'd forgotten about these. I don't recall seeing but one or two, waaaaaay back. Wasn't it an option for '72? It seems that the change from SAE horsepower ratings, to Net ratings brought about a whole bunch of "visual enhancements" to entice us to buy the new ones. Interesting.

imaindianoutlaw · 01-05-2003, 11:07 AM

looks sweet on yellow!

**71blksuper4x4** · 01-05-2003, 01:55 PM

Aren't those the highlander package or whatever they are called???? I thought they were but maybe that was just blazers. There is a blazer that I know about with those type of decals on it and base color is baby yellow color.

greasemonkey · 01-05-2003, 03:41 PM

There was a couple of decal options. I think there was Eagle, Sandman (?) and Highlander. Someone has a sheet showing the different decals.

dmurphy68 · 01-05-2003, 08:30 PM

If some one could get me a better pic and measurements i could recreate that in vinyl stickers. if any one is interested

P.S. I have a vinyl business if any one needs stickers made

da-burb · 01-05-2003, 10:00 PM

Highlander was an option that included the tell-tale plaid seats. It wouldn't have had these decals unless that was ordered also. I remember there being 4 styles. Eagle, Fire, Sand, and ?? . Kind of the Earth, Wind and Fire motif.

The factory kit is pretty much a one size fits all, burbs, blazers, long and short boxes. When you put it on a long box there are a couple of seams at the front of each box side because the decals are made for a short box or blazer and then you splice in the piece for a long box. Up close it looked like a micky mouse way to make it.

jeffbo · 01-06-2003, 01:47 AM

I've got a yellow and green '72 with plaid seats in it, but I don't know if it is a Highlander or not. Did plaid come in non Highlander trucks?

RED72blazer · 01-06-2003, 01:51 AM

I think the last one was called "feathers"

greasemonkey · 01-06-2003, 10:40 AM

I think it is feathers, now that you mention it.

dubie · 01-06-2003, 12:52 PM

Kinda like these?

dubie · 01-06-2003, 12:54 PM

And this

greasemonkey · 01-06-2003, 01:40 PM

That's what I was remembering, thanks for the pics dubie.

**71blksuper4x4** · 01-16-2003, 11:42 AM

Over Thanksgiving, I seen a straight '72 yellow blazer in Garnett, KS that had the feathers Decal on it. It was just sitting at a house. I should of turned around and took a look at it.
