Thats what I was thinking. Only thing I can come up with is that is was some extreme rust removal and a straight line like that would be easier than trying to get the arch right. I dunno though just my thoughts. It does look pretty decent and for sure its original. And plus its a Blazer so its alright with me!!!!

I'll tell you why, for people who don't know how to drive, and the locker is good for winter.

I know I really meant just anything other than ZR-2's.

Not as well as you could with a ZR-2, just saying.

Yeah, I do believe 90% of it is the driver. Just like in racing, it helps to have a good car, but it ultimately comes down to the driver.
I know it's a little different off-road, but the concept is what I'm talking about.

Plus I would hate to keep on pulling up seats and folding them down to have friends sit in the back. :/

Anybody else wondering whether or not brendan has overlooked the fact that a ZR2 is only a lifted 2 door 4x4 blazer? It's not like it suddenly becomes a Jeep because it has ZR2 on the rear quarterpanel. It's a Blazer with a lift kit, skid plates and a rear locker. Anybody can do that to any other Blazer.
