So I made a little progress on the blazer today. After working on this thing for three years and three months I finally laid down a little paint. I wen't back with the factory original blue. The paint shop was able to match the paint from a paint chip chart that I had for 1972 Chevy trucks. I saved a little money and went with PPG Shopline paint. It is a base coat / clear coat paint. We put down 3 coats of paint and clear on the interior panels, dash, and firewall; and we put 4 coats of paint and clear on all of the exterior panels. Overall the paint went on really well. We do have a few sags combined with light orange peel, but that will all come out in the sanding and buffing stage. Here are a few shots.
First a few close up shots.
