Re: Does anyone have an original paint Blazer or Jimmy with painted door latches?

I took an interest in 72 K5 assembly dates while hashing out the 2x vs. 1x wall top details and again when hashing out details regarding the white interior accents seen exclusively on St Louis assembled Highlander Blazers. I certainly can’t recall seeing any St Louis K5s with a build date of April or later and I’m not sure I recall seeing March either (mine was assembled in February). If true, perhaps GM began to retool for square body Blazer assembly at St. Louis ahead of Flint?
