Re: Anyone know whose Blazer this is?

I've never seen it before. Where did you get that pic? I'd take it but why is the back seat so far back?

Re: Anyone know whose Blazer this is?

I got that picture off of ebay a few years ago. I'm pretty sure a link to it was posted on here, but can't say for sure. I do recall it had a real fancy interior.

Yeah, I got the pic from crzngmychvy's website.
One of the guys on the photoshop forum did some color changes for me but this one is pretty close so I was just trying to get a better quality pic so the color could be tweaked a little better.

Re: Anyone know whose Blazer this is?

I would have to agree. That looks like the one but I'm looking for exterior pics so I can have them photoshopped closer to what I want.
I need to break down and just have a rendering.
I sent Carter an email but haven't heard back from him yet.

This is what 75silverstep did for me. It gives me a very good idea, I'm just trying to find some better quality pics so the end result will be better.



This is the style I'm looking for on the paint but mine will have a '68 front end.
(and it won't be green and silver)

Re: Anyone know whose Blazer this is?

That bottom pic was done by Zumo for my 72 I sold to 5150, I too was going to
go with a 68 nose. It's Ironic that I ended up with one w/ the nose already done.

Simon,

I absolutely love that Blazer. I carry a copy of that one with me everywhere so when someone asks what mine will look like I tell them it will be similar to "this" one.
I have 4 or 5 pics of it but I'd love to have some better quality ones.
The images I have a 640x480.
The color that is in my head that I'm gonna use is the color of my beetle in my avatar. I'm going for an awesome rig when I tow it to car shows.

Jim

Do you happen to have a larger image of that rendering?

I love your taste!

Re: Anyone know whose Blazer this is?

I believe so, he did it for a chop contest and used all the colors and specs
I asked for. It was the only way for me to score a rendering at that time.

PM me your e-mail and I will send it to ya. (I have a 1280 x 960)

That is pretty much my dream Blazer. I have the magazine article at home for inpiration. If you have more pics (beyond what is in the article) could you send them to me? Also, do you know if it is for sale?

I saw a while back there was truck on craigslist and that blazer was in the background. The listing said the blazer wasn't for sale. They had obviously been receiving more inquiries about the blazer than the truck.

Re: Anyone know whose Blazer this is?

The owner is from the central valley of california. He hangs with a bunch of guys/family that have amazing blazers, burbs and c-10s. Haven't met him in person but from what I can tell he's a cool cat. Here some big pics he sent me. I have more and if you all want I can upload them later. Oh, and I don't think it is for sale but I can ask...

OK, I played with this for about 15 minutes.
How did you get the links to post with the pic1, pic2, etc names?
I think I tried every option trying to get it to do that.

Re: Anyone know whose Blazer this is?

Simon,

Do you have any of those nice, big pics with the roof on?

I love the looks of the Blazers with their roofs off and the roadsters are awesome with the smoother lines but my truck is gonna be my daily driver and I live is Arkansas where it's either HOT & HUMID or raining most of the time so I'm gonna have the roof and a/c on most of the year.

After you paste the link and close the little window the link appears highlighted in the main window, you just type in what you want the link to say. At least it works like that on a mac.

I'll check to see if I have any with the top but I don't think so. It sure is a great blazer, guess I'm not the only one that thinks so.

Re: Anyone know whose Blazer this is?

If you find out if it is for sale, let me know. The wife wants a new house, but we might have to re-prioritize...
