Get a soft top. You're not going to be driving it in the winter snow anyway. http://www.softopper.com/Softopper_M...01%201969-1972

Re: My New 2WD Toy

I think i'll just leave it topless at the moment , It is not the one I had previous , that project went to a builder in the Edmonton AB area. Just in the process of ordering up some new wheels and tires for her , I cant handle these 15's .The truck is in miles , I spoke with the original owner earlier about it and it was definately purchased local in the BC interior. I'll toss up a few pictures of it when i get home tonight , any requests?

Re: My New 2WD Toy

Been eyeing these wheels up as an alternative to the boss 338's

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/20-CH...ht_4447wt_1002

Anyone running these or seen them in person?

Sweet Blazer/Jimmy, what type of top were you looking for ? Single wall or a Double? Is this the one that was on Craiglistvancouver about 2 years ago? The wheels you have listed as an option should look great!
