Hello. I am a Police Detective from California and am looking for assistance from anyone who may be able to help me identify the year/make/model of what appears to be a 1997-2005 Chevy Blazer/GMC Jimmy involved in a crime from some still surveillance photos. I figured there would not be a better place to get assistance in identifying this vehicle than from a Blazer Forum. Please see the attached images and let me know if you can identify the vehicle any further for me, such as maybe specific year(s) or trim levels.

 

Boy the pictures are not very clear. If the wheels are a five spoke they used them on 96-97 & 99 that I have been able to tell from looking at used ones. The grills are different on I believe 95-98/99-04. My avatar is a 97 Blazer 4x4 for reference. I'm will to email any pictures of ours to you if that will be of help.
My wife is a former Deputy Sheriff from Douglas County Nevada.

 

I would have to say a 98 , I googled 98 chevy blazer and the pictures that came up looked just like the blazer you have posted here .

 

1996 Chevy Blazer, from what I can see.

 

95-97 body style for sure. Kind of looks like the GMC grill. Hard to tell though.

 

I thought so at first, but I can't really tell.

Safe to say it's a 95-97

 

I'm bored and need a challenge. I'm downloading specs from the GM Heritage Center. The really identifiable stuff is burry in the pics; mirrors, grill, etc. Two things that I notice, assuming the vehicle is stock: It has two-tone paint and doesn't appear to have wheel well trim. What do you guys think? From looking at the 1995 Blazer specs, you could only get two-tone paint on the LS models, which had the chrome wheel well trim, so I would think that would rule out it being a 1995 model.

What are yall's opinion on the grill? It's so hard to tell, but it doesn't look to me like it's chrome.

 

I agree with the 95-97 model year. It has a sunroof, so if it's a Blazer it will most likely be an LT model. If it's a Jimmy it will most likely be an SLS or SLT model. You could have an LS (Blazer) or SLE (Jimmy) with a sunroof, but it wasn't as common. I also agree with the two-tone making it more likely to be a GMC.

So, 95-97 GMC Jimmy SLS or SLT.

 

I may be wrong, but from what I've found, 2nd Gen Jimmy's didn't have wheel opening trim. 1995-1997 Blazers with two-tone paint were only available in LS or LT trim, which had wheel opening trim. I'm thinking it's a Jimmy.

 

My LT has (cough, had) chrome wheel trim. I thought chrome fender trim was stock on all 95-97 Blazers?
