My only concern with the top is the rear angle. I think the rear tilted forward more like the other pic would be much cleaner. I don't know if that's an easy fix though.

Instead of loosing it all together, what about a big sunroof like a VW bus?

i like the one in the pic but it looks like it comes back and about a foot and top tilts down in a angle

On roadster style blazers, I like it when there's no metal over the windows, so I would cut it on the pillars instead of the yellow...and I'm with above...any updates?

No not yet waiting for some thoughts on the top and gathering my drop stuff and get the frame blasted painted . Come on guys lets have some in put

I would use suburban doors (square rear corners),...and stand the "B" pillar up to match the rear.
I like that top!

If you're going roadster... cut at the red lines. Make sure you have your seats that you will use in place and mounted before you cut.... you dont want the edge of the windshield right in your line of sight... plus you should be able to get back some of the investment with the roof in tact...

Goto the advanced search page and put in ROADSTER and search titles only.... there are some threads with some good pics....
