uh huh yeah, no
So today was a nice day out and 8ts supposed to be nice the rest of the summer, might get some rain but oh well. I decided to go top less. I found cancer, bad cancer where the topper meets the half cab. Pictures art uploading right now so I will post them when it will let me.

Ouch. I haven't had the top off my 85 yet, now I'm worried. My 79 has some cancer there.

Re: uh huh yeah, no
The seal on the top was almost nonexistent where the cancer is, so I might do a full top conversion. The rot goes through both roof layers in spots, but it's not visible from the interior so it may still be fixable.

Re: uh huh yeah, no
I guess takin the lid off once in a while helps,get the dirt out.
Yes I've seen cars gone on the front too.

Re: uh huh yeah, no
I used to always hear, once you took the top off they leaked. That was the word back in the day. I figured that was one reason they didn't make GMT400s removable. That, or safety of surveys stating most never came off (or all the above). I know on my '90 I never removed it for the 18 years I had it.
