That was it. I had a plan for the Blazer's next phase of life that included the black soft top. I didn't want it with the hard top any more. Softopper came right out, or maybe they already were. Not only did I not want to spend on yet a second top, but Softopper's price was a few hundred dollars more. So, disgusted I sell it off, then not 3 years later I'm buying an '85 Jimmy. Drove it a few miles home and it didn't leave the driveway until it looked like this. Just imagine the red and black Blazer this way. I really did like the Doeskin paint with Buckskin interior and saddle top, though.
