Topless?
 
so i know the k5 blazer 73-75 made a complete topless truck, 75-80's the top just came off behind the front seats. i would like to own a complete topless truck but they are kind of hard to find, is there a way to make your own "73-75 topless K5"?? or does anyone know of anyone whose done this?


Because finding a k5 blazer is not hard 73-75 is a bit more challenging, so if i could do this it would probably just be better on my wallet.

Here's the article that a lot of folks refer to.

Hardest part seems to be sourcing all of the parts. I.e. windshield frame, good top, caps, seals, etc...

I've cut off roofs before,left them in the laneway lol
I've driven enough without a roof over my head to know i'd prefer having it
i find the sun very hot when in it for a long drive,
when the snow piles up,hard to defrost the windshield lol
and then the safety aspect in a roll over
