I'll bet they're asking a pretty penny for that.

Re: Look what I found in the Caddilac dealers wimfow!

Its actually my K5 just in for a few minor touch ups and electric repairs. I saw it from the freeway on the way home tonight and circled back to take pictures. I will post some more better images from my PC tomorrow. I will take what that one sold for $120k at Barrett Jackson today however!

Beautiful. Where do you live? I am in Fort Worth Texas. To tell you the truth I liked it without the roll bar better looks wise but my GF wouldn't let her daughter ride in it. I will post and if you look at my other post there are more images too. PG

Re: Look what I found in the Caddilac dealers wimfow!

A few of those pics show my open sided extra hard top while cool it did develop some cracks pretty fast and I was scared it would blow off and kill someone so I have not used it much. Trying to figure out if I should just cut it into a hard bikini or try to save it some how. After this lesson I made a had bikini out of a old rusted hard top for my Plymouth Trailduster which I love. I would post a pic but I am not sure if it is allowed. PG

Re: Look what I found in the Caddilac dealers wimfow!

That's pretty cool. Like the open top, never seen that done.

Question, what size lift and tires do you have? I have the same wheels as yours but have a 6" lift (there when I bought it) and I want to lower it some and go with BFG's like yours.

Re: Look what I found in the Caddilac dealers wimfow!

33x12.5"x15 BFG no lift stock height other then tires in the later images with the roll bar. I now have changed to Yokohama Geolanders AT forget the size but still on 15" wheels like 32x11.5" I think they are. I also have a Plymouth Trailduster (among others) that I cut a top into a hard bikini for. Just now working the bugs out of it and getting it sealed but really like it. Looks like a bigger big bronco with the top going to the roll bar. I wish I had done that with the Blazer extra top as its still so heavy and takes a few to put it on or off. Plus the cracks that I mentioned. On the Mopars the top is steel not fiberglass and they are a lot lighter but prone to rust of course. Take care PG

Can you post pics with the 32x11’s. I’m anxious to see how that looks.
