I like #2 personally. Either way it's a good looking truck!

Can you believe that the tires I got for it are actually 1 size larger than it came from the factory with??? Must have looked like 4 temp spares in 72

Re: Which Look Looks Better??

I would like to see #3 without the white walls. Is that an option?

Re: Which Look Looks Better??

All I know is #2 has a freaking crooked house behind it!
I like #1, I prefer the no molding look.

Re: Which Look Looks Better??

#3 without the whites walls if your doing the stock thing.

Otherwise #2 looks great also.
I'd throw on some zero rates and get her sittin' level too.

Seems like you have yourself a very clean/original blazer there from what we've seen of late, keep it stock for sure.

You can't find them that way to much anymore.

#1, I hate trim. It just looks too busy. I can live with it when seperating two different colors, but just to have it, I don't get it.

Re: Which Look Looks Better??

Most definately pic #3, white walls and all!!

I must be getting old, cause STOCK is really appealling.

Beautiful Blazer, and yes, please get some pics of the interior.

Re: Which Look Looks Better??

Thanks for you input. I never realized how crooked the house across from me was until someone commented on it. It could be the fact that I tried to take a level picture of the Blazer on an incline, which may create that illusion.

This Blazer came from the factory with whitewalls, which is why I put those on it.

From the people that have responded, the results are as follows:

#1 = 3 votes (13%)
#2 = 8 votes (33%)
#3 = 13 votes (54%)

Please double check my math. Thanks
