1975 blazer questions

I just bought a 1975 blazer in beautiful condition. I would like to install a bikini top and can not find one. I heard scout ones will fit does anyone know this for sure? If correct where is the best place to purchase? I would like to also/either install a bestop soft top but do not want to drill holes for snaps in my rust free mint blazer. Any suggestions? I was thinking maybe installing the snaps in the bed rail protectors you see on pick up trucks cut down to length for the blazer. What do you think?

I'll try and post a pic when I get it but I don't belong to any picture hosting sites and don't really want to join one. When I get a pic if someone wants to post it I'll email them one?!!

I plan on going this route using a piece of metal tubing instead of wood. I am going to run the bestop scout II bikini top. Check out this website under bikini top.

Do a net search for Best Top, they use too, not sure if they still do.

Thanks, I guess scout or custom are my only two choices.
