blazer?
 
i just found a few pics of blazers without the top and then with the top... so is this true?! i can remove the top and put it back whenever i want?!

the years are 1969-72 right?

Yeah, the tops can be removed. Many guys here go topless much of the year. You can also remove a full top up the the 1975 blazer. After that the top comes off from just behind the front seats.

That's what make Blazers soooo cool. There are Blazer half tops also, makes them look like a real short p/u.:metal:

You can't find them because most of them were either beat to death on the trail or have rusted into the ground.

oh that sucks!... i wanted that but i suppose i will continue with my 67 shortbed/stepside project...

were they all 4wd?

can i use my c10 frame and put a blazer cab/bed setup on it?

Re: blazer?
 
There are a few 2wds (very few). The c10 frames are a little longer and will not work without a lot of work but you can use the front suspension to convert to 2wd

There's fairly regular posts in the "2wd Blazer/Jimmy find" thread, I'll bet there's prolly 2-3 times as many 2wd Blazers for sale as were produced(conversions from 4x4).

The short bed sounds like a nice project. If you look for Blazers, look at the vin#. That will tell you what it is, or was.
Nothing wrong with a conversion as long as it was done right.
