I haven't been on here for quite a while. I've been working on my rebuilder. Just got it done a month ago. 95 Chevy Z-71. It was (is) a GMC. It used to be teal green, but that just wouldn't do so I stripped it down and painted it Indigo Blue. Then body colored the grille, mirrors, handles and the bumpers. Put on a 4" Trailmaster lift, cowl hood, 17" Eagle 219's, Pro Comp All Terrain 33's, painted tails like caddy's, duals, tint and all sorts of little junk. Here's a pic, kinda bad though. I'll try to take more. Getting the itch to get out my 72 again and start tweaking next month. I'm going to get some parts ordered for it when I get my tax return. woohooo

That white thing on the grille in the pic is from the camera, don't know why though.

Is that the factory color? If so, the '94 I just sold had the same (not in quite the same shape) color on it. I LOVE IT. The '71 is staying medium blue, but when I get a blazer, its either gonna be the dark blue like you've got, or a maroon that's so dark it almost looks black.
