Eureka!

This was an early rendering of what would become the Chevy Blazer. At that time, the idea was for something a bit smaller than the eventual product. To me, the lines evoke a Chevy II from the same period:

Here is the original picture. Even though the production blazer would come seven years later, the Blazer name seems to have been chosen early. Here you can see it was featured on the illustrated vehicle's rear fender.
