Re: Newbie
Go for it. It's your rig.
Soft tops can be bought through SpecialtyTopCo and Bestop. Last I heard, SpecialtyTopCo was going through a reorganization or something and all production was stopped. They may be back up and running by now. I like the looks of the STC tops better. I have a fasttrack on my '72.

Re: Newbie
Welcome to the board - saw your pics in the other post - very nice Blazer. Enjoy it and make it how you want. It can always be returned to stock if you keep stuff.
