Needed: Top of Windshield Frame - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

vtblazer · 03-14-2004, 08:29 AM

I need to replace the top portion of my windshield frame

I just need the top rail to include the corners and just a couple inches of the sides...that's all. (this should be a peach to find)
Needs to be rust free of coarse...I know

Anybody seperate one recently? Trades welcome, thanks.
I better include that it's for a blazer

can't a good machine shop make one for you?

It's a pretty complex combination of sheet metal pieces. I doubt a shop would want to deal with it. Keep searching. I've found a couple. You may want to try www.coloradok5.com and ask on those message boards. Good Luck.

They pop up every now and then. Just keep searching...

Yeah, I expect timing is everything

I just sectioned a firewall from a truck and have it sitting nicely on my blazer tub. Could make something work up top but if I can find an original blazer frame, I think that's the way to go.
Keep your eyes open for me, that's all I'm asking, thanks

There is a board member who fabricated their own top to the windshield frame. He didn't plan on ever putting the top back on, just a soft top, so he just used flat metal.

If it does not rain tomorrow, I will be looking at one. I will let you know of it is useable or not.

I have a whole front of a Blazer with a *perfect* frame. Although I havent figured out to ship something that big yet.
