Pics of Two-Tone Blazers

I'm thinking about two-toning the blazer over the winter and wanted to see some pics of other blazers.

thanks

Re: Pics of Two-Tone Blazers

Can't see your blazer looking any better being two tone.

Looks amazing now, why the need for change?

I know a lot of guys have pics saved on their PC's, they'll jump in soon I'm sure.

Re: Pics of Two-Tone Blazers

Kurt, I was talking to my body guy and he had the idea of doing a dark gray on the bottom half of the blazer. I was just wanting to see where people did the line at. The only one I've been able to find is this one:

Whoa...that one's pretty sweet too!

Re: Pics of Two-Tone Blazers

I'll do that. The biggest thing is we were trying to figure out the best spot to do it where it looks good.

Re: Pics of Two-Tone Blazers

Did the factory ever offer the two-tone paint that was offered on the pickups, like the blue and white one shown above? I've thought mine might look good in yellow and white.

No, but if I were going to 2-tone mine, that's exactly how I'd do it. Modify and install the pickup moldings, and 2-tone the center. Looks the best in my opinion, and would probably fool most people as being factory.

I've really been thinking hard about doing it....

Nope. But they should have 'cause it sure looks good.

Love it! Planning to paint mine the same way, but with black where yours is white, and a silver pinstripe instead of charcoal.

Went the traditional two-tone as on the pickups with mine. The original Medium Red with a Chevy Navaho tan from the 50s matching the tan soft top.
