There were some on ebay that looked just like that, but were black. I think the guy who is reproducing those puts them on ebay each week or so. Just keep lookin'

Check out Colorado K5. On their home page they advertise for a company that is currently selling them. I think they are about $1,000 or so.

There are two different people making them right now. The guy on e-bay and the guy who advertised on CK5.com. I don't think you can fit them on with a roll bar though...

Thanks gang for the help, looks like a good product only wish i could talk to someone here on the board that's seen one up close. (Question..... would you chose a soft top or the half top if you were in the market for a blazer top????????) just wondering what you think would look the best it would be going on a dropped 2wd.

I think that is s total personal choice. I don't see a soft-top or a roll bar looking too good on a dropped 2wd. I half seen that black and silver "butterablazer" or something like that in one of those custom classic truck magazines that had a half-top (I think) on it. It looked pretty sharp. If you have shelter for it, and don't want to drive it everyday, I say why bother. A dropped 2wd looks much better topless (Like many things). If you need a top, then I would vote for the half cab top.

I'll agree with Jonesable. I dropped 2wds look best with out a top. If you must run something other than the stock hardtop, I'd look into one of the half tops.
