Re: Blazer retractable convertible top
Hey ya good idea time for an update!
Well... After my last post in Nov I worked hard on it until May and which time I took the Blazer to the body shop where it has been for 6 months.. It has been progressing ok and should be back to me by Christmas ! Below is the latest pic I got I decided to go with the Chev Laser blue metallic color like the 2007 Silverado SS concept..

Re: Blazer retractable convertible top
Wish the forum had Like buttons. That colour is going to look sweet.
Keep us updated with pics when you get it back. |

Re: Blazer retractable convertible top
Hey thanks guys ! Going to pick up the truck on weds/thurs this week. I'll post new pictures when I get it in my shop and with the wheels on..
Can't wait to see the truck in person , I brought it to a shop over 7 hours away and its been there for 8 months so it'll be nice to have her home again...
