Re: topless C10/20/30
Welcome to the site.I don`t recall any members with a convertible,but I`ve seen and discussed them here.Do you want a rag-top or make the top removeable like they were doin`with minis?Nice corral you got there.

Re: topless C10/20/30

Re: topless C10/20/30
I have seen the half cab for Blazers and even did one on a friend of mine's '67 Bronco. That was a cool look with the hard top, then he ran a bikini top in the summer if anything at all.
