1970 k5 resto

I am starting a frame - off resto on a 1970 k5 blazer. I am looking for ideas on roll cage setups. I think this is the place to start the interior.

Re: 1970 k5 resto

The red blazer reminded me about the last 'cage' thread...

Wasn't all that long ago, should come up when you do the search.

Nice K5 Long Roof.
