I suspect that these are going to be near impossible to find, since blazers without tops were probably the first to rust out

I believe they are plastic. Anyone know the part#???? Do some research ???? I think they would be popular if we can find one orignal set and get some made...

More then likely they are like some of the other things you see in the assembly manual that never made it into production. Looks like the whole window frame is missing.

There are several things in the assembly manual that don't appear to have come to fruition. Those don't look like they would be too hard to make out of fiberglass.

Don't believe they were ever produced. My parts book does not show the number for stocking. Probably a prototype.
Would be easier to customize a door with nothing above the top--no vent window, etc. You could round or square off the top of the door so nothing could get in there---build it with a crash bar inside like newer vehicles and just stick them on. Would be great for the south west where rain/rust are non issues. Would almost look like a 1/2 door!!! Of course your windshield frame better be good!!!

Good luck on finding an original pair. Seems like fiberglass would be an easy route to go ..
