Finally took the top off this weekend - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

it hit 60 degrees here this weekend, so I had to take the top off. not too hard to take it off (its a single wall) but a pain to put back on. I need to rig some kind of stand, where i can back into, take the top off, slide 2 x4's underneath, and drive away.

The top is breaking away around the bolts that hold it on, so I had to find some larger washers. I didn't realize how bad it was till I started to replace the bolts this afternoon.

now I remember why I bought this vehicle.

I didn't even think about taking a pic.

Randy, I was actually visiting my parents this weekend, they live on Willis Gap. I keep my Blazer there, since I keep a condo in Greensboro for work. I graduated from Tech 6 years ago.
