Welcome to the Forum, and Great Looking C10 1/2ton, or is it a C5 1/4ton?? 8)
now im not for sure if all k5 tops come off but i was wonderin if yours is still removable. thatd be sweet on a nice sunday cruise
Unless it was molded or sealed on, all Fullsize Blazer/Jimmy Tops came off... It was just around '75 that they went 3/4 style('75 and later), as opposed to the Full Convert Style of the Earlier Years...  GM/Ford/Dodge had Nader and the NHTSB breathing down it's neck, due to some idiots that had rolled full convert. Blazer/Jimmy's/Bronco's/Ram Chargers, and decapitated themselves :-X  What's that, you mean to tell me that a Convert. SWB lifted truck, even at stock height isn't meant to be driven like a Sports Car???(Most of the Injuries/Fatalities occured during excessive speeds, especially cornering, but most of the Parents on Naders Bandwagon refused to believe their Sweet Innocent Tommy/Jenny could do such a thing)...  ::)

That is a very sweet K5!  Love that two-tone paint job.  :)
