Front Bed Sill Plate for a 72 Blazer
Front Bed Sill Plate, 72 Blazer
So before I buy wanted to check if this is the only option for a front bed sill plate? https://www.motorcityk5.com/i-13241-...72-blazer.html |

Re: Front Bed Sill Plate for a 72 Blazer
The rear carpet trim strip is also correct for use as a front strip for most K5s. Seemingly, all St Louis K5s and 71/early 72 Flint built examples made use of the “rear” trip strip up front. Flint built K5s received the updated “front” strip at some point after the model year began. My blue 72 had the rear design installed up front (St Louis truck) but I used the updated style during the restoration.

Interesting... I do like the flat style better as it is cleaner looking.

I have a 70 that is original and really has some 69 stuff on it. It has the flat angled strip upfront. my 71's have the rear one for the front

I have both those strips from motor city. They are nice. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy again.
