I had to stick a photo in too. Gem Sport, it came off a '77 GMC, it fit perfect on my '75 Chev.
Canopies are great but you can't haul a lot with them on (dirt bikes, road bikes, etc).

That would be extremely cool to see redone with the correct vintage truck under it.
Thats what I thought, I doubt if there were very many of them built. I'll bet you have to be real careful cornering with all of that behind you.

No kidding, lol. You weren't starting out with a low end half ton either.

I have a drop on a blazer top for cheap - I'm thinking I can modify it to match up well with my cab sides and cab roof, for a nice alternative than the typical look of an added cap. Any tried this before? I'd be cutting the extended section off the Blazer top, of course, so I know it will take some fibreglass work. I want to keep it looking white, but rough, to match the patina'd style of my truck.

Thanks for any pics or ideas. It's a shame to cut up a Blazer top, but if no one else buys, this guy will take it to the trash dump, so....

For one they are to short to fit the bed. An if its a full removable top I wouldn't cut it up as someone with a later model one would love to have it to make theirs a full convertible....

Got this for free today from a guy with some cool chevys, fords and lots of motorcycles.

It’ll be nice for camping and hunting. It’s pretty thick fiberglass with no damage. Came off his 62 big window c10.

Need to pull my tool box and headache rack for now and built a camper shell hoist. It’s a bit too cumbersome for the other half to lift on and off regularly.

Dirty pics just for @idahovette

That's a great camper shell. And the price was perfect.
