Blazer top dented??? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have found a Blazer with a decent top on it. Only problem is that there are a few spots on the top of it that are sunk in a little, like someone or something may have been on the top. Is this normal?

Yes that is normal. The double wall tops do it worse than the single wall tops though. WES www.ClassicHeartbeat.com

Hey wes is there anything that can be injected in between the pannel's to raise the roof back up(like expanding foam)???

The problem is that the outer skin on a double wall is probably much harder and brittle then the inner skin. I thought about doing the same thing on mine but it would be real hard to control the expansion and Im afraid it might cause the inside to bulge.
