Strange Thoughts: Yenko Blazer - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

blazerslave · 10-28-2004, 11:39 PM

I think I've seen too many episodes of "Rides", "Overhaulin'" and "Pimp My Ride" . . . .

Has anyone thought of or seen anyone try to create a Yenko Blazer? I thought that a 1969 or 1970 Blazer with a 396 or 454 might be cool with Yenko badging, seats and striping.

As far as I know, Yenko only treated Camaros, Chevelles & Novas . . . why not a try a pickup or a Blazer?

My second thought is the 1969-72 (Suburban) to be an Escalade.

Maybe I should put the bong down . . . .

Interesting . . . I've never seen one . . . though it wouldn't surprise me.

I seen an episode of my classic car a while back and he said that yenko actually did a few cougars? Did'nt seem right to me.

I don't think it would be all that hard to pull off and would look pretty good too I would think...

Hmmm, Something I Might Have To Consider, Seeing As I'm Going
Ppg Triple Black W/ A White Top, White And Black Houndstooth
Interior, I Like The Side Stripe, Not Sure About One On My Cowl
Hood, Would Have To Think Real Hard About That One.

Agreed! Maybe the hood stripe would be a bit much . . . .

I think it'd be sweet!

Not Yenko but how about plain old rally stripes?
