Welcome aboard manny
To cut the top off, :o
Probley cheaper and easier to get a Convertable.
I haven't heard of any body selling a top but maybe a wrecking yard could sell ya  the top half?
Anything is possible ;D

I think going with a different truck would be better.

That is unless your making a trail rig only.  Then you could cut the top off and put a roll bar in it.

I would have to second that one. Much easier to swap.

Plus I hate seeing tin tops hacked up. Not saying your going to hack it up ;) I just want one to chop 8) My buddy moved the upper half of the rear of his up to the door like a pickup and sealed off the back with a sub frame and sheet. Pretty sweet job to, all solid. I have pics but cant figure out how to post on this site ::)

No. My boys got a sammy and only moved the top (a bit higher than a soft top rear) forward, about to where the targa bar would be. Its is OD green though. ;D
