ian villeza · 05-07-2006, 03:03 PM

I'm looking for a Single wall Hard top, But just got a soft top only.

Ditto!

jcfoote60 · 05-07-2006, 08:22 PM

I have 1 double and 1 single................going to use the single on my current project truck....just curious, for the guys wanting the half cab, why don't you just get a hook up with a SWB flleetiside or a Step? Blazers and Jimmys are what they are...just my opinion but half cabs are not cool in my book. Open air and the convertible side are what make these truck COOL

chevy_fatman · 05-07-2006, 08:31 PM

I got both as well...............

crzngmychvy · 05-07-2006, 11:08 PM

Took me al most 2 years to find my single wall top.

jakeslim · 05-07-2006, 11:49 PM

I have a half cab also. I have a soft top, but need a couple of pieces for the frame. Also, not big on drilling holes for snaps and stuff.

I want a half cab because I think it would be easier to put on and off.
I just wish our soft tops were like other convertibles that could just unlatch and go up and down in one motion, Like an aircooled volkswagen.
How about a power top that could go up and down at the flick of a switch.

vtblazer · 05-08-2006, 06:34 AM

3) doubles
2) soft tops, had three, gave one away...
1) single walled top

HARDLY USE ANY OF 'EM

*Medicanman71* · 05-08-2006, 07:13 PM

the half cab is very easy to put on and take off by myself, i lucked on that purchase though...roughly $150 or so

Green Monster · 05-09-2006, 12:56 AM

So what's the deal with the "half cab" Is that a "sawzall special" or an actual top that was mfg'd by GM or some aftermarket outfit?

Swbman · 05-09-2006, 10:38 AM

Single wall on 71 2wheel, would love to find a decent affordable hard half cab top.Maybe I will trip over one somewhere, that's usually how it works for me.

Yeah what he said

What gives???

*Medicanman71* · 05-09-2006, 02:15 PM

get w/ the program guys

they were aftermarket. Maybe it's for the best that not so many blazer owners know about them

Well maybe, but if they weren't so rare I might be able to find one. But then again, if everyone had one I might not want one.

makovai · 05-09-2006, 03:57 PM

anybody got a nice pic of the 1/2 cab.....I'd like to see one. I've seen them for the bronco but not for a blazer.

hotrodhomi · 05-09-2006, 05:34 PM

here you go.

LUV2XCLR8 · 05-09-2006, 05:49 PM

I have both, 2 Blazers, but I could only vote once, do I said single

FRENCHBLUE72 · 05-09-2006, 11:09 PM

Double wall and damn is it heavy.... Its about time to come off too..

EFI70Blazer · 05-10-2006, 06:43 AM

I have two double wall tops. Just picked up the second for the low price of $40 with no damage, cracks, and it is not warped on the top like most are. Wish i had a single wall though along with a half cab for summer time easy on and off use.

*Medicanman71* · 05-10-2006, 03:13 PM

HEre is a good qustion, are the half cabs double or single? (i guess it could be both depending? or were all brands the same?)

I'd guess they are all single since they are basically a molded piece. Mine is anyways and it seems to be the one that is most common.
The differences I've seen with half cabs are that some have the "clasp" that attach to the top of window frame, and the others bolt on. Also the bulkhead might be different in some.
