I've been looking for a 2dr that's painted this color for a little while and iroc2nv found this one for me. One thing pretty rare about it other than the color is that it is a 5 speed.
![]() ![]() ![]() Already done: Exterior: SS Mirrors Euro tails Interior: Panasonic DVD player Kenwood speakers Suspension: From looking underneath it I think it's a 2/3 (coils/blocks), but I haven't had a chance to really check it out. Engine: K&N Intake Optima red top Wheels: 1st style ZQ8's Brakes: Cross drilled rotors out back Plans: Paint: Door handles Grill shell Dash bezel Window controls Bowtie Exterior: Fix fender Euro headlights Euro turn signals Smooth chrome bumper Brazilian tail lights 5k HID's Smooth chrome bumper Billet grill Interior: Smooth some plastic out Convert to power windows/locks Keyless entry Install a power rear hatch actuator Convert to tilt steering colum Add cruise control Leather bucket seats Have rear seat recovered Double DIN dash bezel Suspension: 2" Belltech spindles 2" DJM coils Lean spacer Pulled leaf 2" JTR blocks 3* shims Set back plates Belltech Street Performance Shocks all around SD notch Wheels: 2nd style ZQ8's Then probably some miscellaneous stuff. |

Looks like a good start man. Bet you can't wait to roll around and listen to that Rebecca Black song you like so much.

I like the looks better. Looks cleaner imo. They don't have projectors, it's the same ones on my white one.

Re: ZQ8 Blazers new ZQ8 Blazer
I'm waiting to get the VTR form back from the owner (long story) so I can get the Blazer titled in Ky before I start doing anything to it. Should be in the mail tomorrow or the next day.

Sounds like a good plan.
If I had money I would take the 4dr off your hands. |

Re: ZQ8 Blazers new ZQ8 Blazer
In that year, paint code 23U is space blue. The vin decoder is wrong on the name is all.

Re: ZQ8 Blazers new ZQ8 Blazer
VTR form just came in! I thought the mail man had already ran so I clay bar waxed the Blazer (looks good) and now I'm wore out so I doubt I'll be doing anything today other than getting temporary tags.
Also the tilt steering column and cruise control box came in today. I wonder if I could swap multifunction switches between Blazers without it screwing with the flashers or something on my 4dr? Reason being is that I just replaced the one in the 4dr not too long ago. |

Re: ZQ8 Blazers new ZQ8 Blazer
thanks man. I got them off ebay like 98% of everything else I get lol. Here they are. I like them because if GM had ever made a set of euro's for the 98+'s I think they'd look like these.

Re: ZQ8 Blazers new ZQ8 Blazer
Well I opened it up and it has the multifunction switch with it! I can't believe s10warehouse sold a tilt column, cruise box, ignition w/ key, and multifunction switch for $100 shipped.
