FYI: Factory Topless Blazer Side Door Window Opening Caps - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

badpeanut · 02-11-2007, 11:27 PM

I found this pair at a semi-local GM dealer (this is not the same set that was on eBay recently). I was told these parts were discontinued in 1983. Part numbers are as follows:

Driver's Side: 3962531
Passenger's Side: 3962532

They are both gray fiberglass (I don't know why the driver's side is black on top). To use them as is requires cutting the entire door frame off. If a person wanted to retain the vent window, these door window opening caps could be trimmed accordingly.

I sacrificed an old door with issues to take the pictures due to these requests:

Enjoy!

do you happen to have a hi-res scan of that article? I'd like to print that out in full size.

cstanley · 02-12-2007, 12:49 AM

I can provide hi-res of all pictures except that one which I borrowed from a previous thread by board member raggedjim.

Any luck?

**raggedjim** · 02-27-2007, 11:17 AM

I'm sorry. I'm having a new roof put on my house and everything that was in the attic is now in my computer room!

Once I find the article I WILL scan it, but so far I haven't found it...

**raggedjim** · 02-28-2007, 02:31 PM

Hope this works...

Notice the door caps, no window cranks, and no vent window frame.

Also weird is the bench seat and the wide wheels... I wonder if this one is a prototype...

Hey there is a cool idea. For the trucks remove the gas tank from inside the cab and mount a spare. Well I guess if there is room and you could get it in and out from behind the seat.

Oh well I guess not such a good idea afterall.
