converting a 85 tub into a 73 full convertible

[wildwilly4x4]

I'm in the process of doing the smae thing to my '80. I have modded the doors already for the full convertable, but I am still on the bench about the windshield mod. I have to replace my blazers frame before i can cut off my half cab (bad wheeling incident), but I dunno if i want to cut the pillars like they did on COK5 or try to separate the sheetmetal like the OP describes. Please keep me up to date on wht you end up doing.
