It wouldn't be worth the effort. You'd have to brace the cab, find t-tops that would work with your roofline (out of an IROC/mustang/olds... etc.), then when your finished dumping $1000 into the project you'd be better off strapping a bench seat in the bed.

Make the ones that wanted you to get a blazer ride in the back or buy their own blazer.:ehcapt:

The roof is not big enough to justify t-tops in these trucks. Bad idea IMO and you're just asking for structural issues and leaks.

There are company's out there that will make you truck into a hard top convertible. I agree with everyone else too much of a pain in the ass to make it a T top, and you would still have leaks
