71 blazer upper body moulding and possible decals...

Did they ever make the upper trim for a blazer? I can't seem to find it anywhere. In the pic I attached, the blazer has it. I can find every piece except the one from the door back to wards the bedside. That one obviously is the difference between a truck and blazer. If anyone has a source or any info I would appreciate it.

Also, as a possible alternative what about the decals like the new truck in the other pic? Not my first choice, but this blazer is going to be my sons first truck. In the summer it will not have a top, so his buddies will be climbing in and out of it, and I know the trim will take a beating. Not to mention the fact that the trim is going to be around $700. I could clear over it and hopefully it would be ok looking.



Thanks
Lynn

Although they do look good that way......first generation K/5 Blazers never came with two tone paint or upper molding.
You will have to get a set for a pickup and modify them.

There is a place near me called auto trim design in Cape Girardeau that supposedly makes the decals and does those new truck retro conversions.
