Re: Soft Tops For 69 to 72 Blazer

The tonneau for the 71 longbed has an aluminum frame that clamps to the bedsides and the snaps are mounted to it. I was going to try to find some of the aluminum channel they use and make a soft top frame out of it. Then just have some vinyl cut and sewn to fit with side and rear windows sewn in as well. Anyone tried a frankenstein job like that? Any ideas on a supplier for the aluminum channel? Its basically just a rectangular tube with plastic corners riveted on. Jeff.
