Finally getting a 1/2 top and now I need your help!!!
 
I need some pics of blazers that have 1/2 tops with bed covers. This is my only option since I have a full interior. I need to get some ideas for this. :fb:

I hope you mean full interior minus the rear seat, cause no bed cover will cover them ;)

A bed cover will cover mine because I have a 87 suburban rear seat that folds down.;)

Well I started making my custom fiberglass cover today. I remembered I have a snug top cover for a 88-98 truck that I have let set outside on the ground the last 4 years. I went and retrieved it from the old house that we rent out and brought it home and started measuring and cutting. I was plenty long enough but not quite wide enough. Here is the fun part, I cut the front of it off to the lenght I needed for the side to side and then I cut the lip that goes down the bedside off. I am going to fiberglass that lip to where I cut the original front of it off. That lip is going to be the new side that goes down the bed of the blazer. The side that I cut the lip off of is going to be the new front. I hope this makes sense, basically I am turning the cover 180 degrees and that is how it is going to set on the blazer. I will get some pics the next time I work on it.
