If this Blazer could talk !
My brother and I bought a Blazer out of Albuquerque New Mexico in August of 2012. Started to replace the carpet and noticed three holes in the passenger side floor board. The holes start in the carpet and go thru the underlayment, and floor. It looks like bullet holes to me. What do you think ? Maybe someone around Albuquerque knows.
1) Blazer 2) Pic of top carpet with washers placed above the holes. 3) Pic underneath carpet 4) Pic of underlayment 5) Pic of Styrofoam underlayment |

At least you know it wasn't originally a Canadian truck. ;-)

Re: If this Blazer could talk !
Mike can you get a sense for the trajectory of the bullets? In one shot it looks like the undersurface of the pan is more flared out. Am curious if shots came from driver seat or possibly through an open passenger door. Maybe a rattlesnake was crawling around loose. I hate it when that happens.

Re: If this Blazer could talk !
Damn, I’d love that truck just how it is.
I want a survivor medium bronze 4x4 to go with my medium bronze factory 2wd

Re: If this Blazer could talk !
Thanks. It's a repaint that the color is not right. I tried a little touch up around windshield and it looks like a copper penny. Hopefully the medium bronze will come out right.

Re: If this Blazer could talk !
Was there a Blazer in Breaking Bad? I cant recall one, but then my memory isn't so great! LOL
Ironically, Mike does have the actual truck from Better Call Saul though...

Re: If this Blazer could talk !
That’s a funny story.
Mike did you end up with the green Blazer from Billy in ABQ? Good deal.
