Topless?
so i know the k5 blazer 73-75 made a complete topless truck, 75-80's the top just came off behind the front seats. i would like to own a complete topless truck but they are kind of hard to find, is there a way to make your own "73-75 topless K5"?? or does anyone know of anyone whose done this?
Because finding a k5 blazer is not hard 73-75 is a bit more challenging, so if i could do this it would probably just be better on my wallet.

Re: Topless?
Here's the article that a lot of folks refer to.

Re: Topless?
I've cut off roofs before,left them in the laneway lol
I've driven enough without a roof over my head to know i'd prefer having it i find the sun very hot when in it for a long drive, when the snow piles up,hard to defrost the windshield lol and then the safety aspect in a roll over
