Re: Blazer half cabs
I personally don't like the way these look. It reminds me of when guys try to cut a long bed down to a short bed and they don't get it right.

Re: Blazer half cabs
I passed on one of these at a swap meet about five years ago because the guy wanted 1800.00 for it( I thought that was a crazy price). in a way I should have jus bought it because I have been on the hunt for one ever since. I don't think they were very common up here I Canada. It would be a nice alternative to the full roof.

Re: Blazer half cabs
They chopped out the back window for the rollbar. Kinda kills it as it would need a lot more work to make it a half top again instead of just a sun roof.

I think they used a full top and cut that front portion (home made) like mentioned above.

To me it looks like it was a half top to begin with. If they cut down the original top, It would be a flat cut at the back and not have the double drip rail like it has. Either way I have had a double wall homemade one and what they did was cut down a double wall and then put the hatch in place as the back window with bondo and sheet metal. It wasn't too bad looking but I went a different direction with mine and needed space so I sold it.

Re: Blazer half cabs
Probably a homemade one. I don't know much about them other than I don't like the way they look. LOL

IMHO, Pacesetter's do not bring same $ MTP's bring.

(MTP - Minnesota Truck Parts, attaches like factory)

I sold my Pace about 8-10 years ago for $800 with
a Bulkhead. Would estimate $1500 easy "if" it has
the latches, decent shape, and removable divider.
