72Blazerblue - I have been looking for one of these for many years and finally got a tip off the truck board that there was one in Washington on a truck that might part out. I contacted the guy, and closed the deal. These have not been made since the early 70s and are hard to find.

Truckster - Yes, it is a chrome cowl. Another crazy 70's fad. Not sure if I will be keeping it on there or not.

Sonosadsack - I have been replacing metal on the Blazer. The black areas are new metal (or clean OEM donner metal) that I have stitched in. No Bondo. It needs some final tweaking and a skim coat in places to cherry it out, and then paint.
