,my 1971 blazer cst with four wheel pop up camper - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

joea307 · 06-20-2013, 03:30 PM

Its good to be apart of this board.Late last year I bought a 1971 blazer cst with four wheel pop up camper.I use it as my daily driver and have done minimal work to it.im in the process of putting on new reproduction doors that came off a 1970 blazer ,but only on that blazer a week or so.they are in perfect shape so now im buying all the inner workings of the doors.i have new tinted glass and good used wing windows. I put a reproduction inner grille and new side markers all around.last winter after I got it I replaced the water pump also.My plans are to just keep working on this blazer and at some point put a majority of the original interior and other things in this blazer.it was a medium green cst with white parchment interior.i suspect it had woodgrain side trim.it had a 350/th350 also.it had heavy duty front springs also.it was really just an average cst.but I like it a lot and also plan on using the camper as well.

Good thing I didn't have one of those in High school

. Very nice rig.

**Ol Blue K20** · 06-21-2013, 11:55 AM

I knew they had those for the square bodys but didn't know they made it for the 69-72 Blazer. All I have to say is that is cool as heck... AWESOME!!! thanks for the pics and welcome to the site

joea307 · 06-21-2013, 12:37 PM

The camper was made by four wheel campers.they are rare to see on this body style.the company started in 1972.my dad had almost the same camper on his 1976 blazer.he also put it on his 1982 blazer.his camper was a1977 and mine I'd a 1983.its in good shape overall. This body style blazer was the only one i could find here in the denver metro area.I'm proud to own it.the and blazer need a little work but a great project.thanks for the interest folks.

So you actually have two hard to find parts in one? A camper and a half top. That is a cool setup.

Ole Beater · 06-21-2013, 05:04 PM

What kind of accessory's are on the driver side?

joea307 · 06-21-2013, 08:56 PM
