I think you've pretty much narrowed down the usual suspects. Not going to be many new to the world tops for EB's I'm thinking. Unless ICON or someone like that starts to offer one.
If you're not sure the BC top is for you, why would a Can-Bak be any better? Aren't they still very similar design concepts and executions? They doing something better, or different enough to be worth the price?
Since it sounds at least like they feel the demand is there, and are working on one as we speak, did they happen to give you any physical details other than expected pricing? Sure would be nice to see a mockup or pre-production model to whet our appetites.
Not likely your searching is going to net you any more results. Other than one-off customs, there are not that many companies that will put the engineering into a low production volume vehicle that has not been built for literally 40+ years.
At least not without charging accordingly.
And while Bronco owners were notoriously cheap for most of those years, the last few have certainly seen us spending a lot more money to get what we want done to them.
So maybe the $3000 price tag seems reasonable to some, for what you will get. But as the next two comments showed, not all of us are ready to plunk down that much for a soft top. Hopefully Can-Bak's results are better than the last time they offered it. That lasted only a couple of years I think.
I'm sure there are others that have put even more money into a custom one-off, but not likely to find them readily available or listed for sale online I'm thinking.
So what about ICON? Any of theirs using soft tops? Or are they all hard tops?
Just wondering if, what with all the different types of vehicles they offer, and all the different types of custom engineering, they've had Bronco customers interested enough to make them think about offering one too.
Would be interesting to see what they came up with!
Let us know if you get any more info or pics from CB. But don't completely rule out the BCB yet either. Sounds like it would be the best, at least so far. Pretty sure most users that are members here have been very happy with their tops.
Maybe some of them will post up pics of what they got and how they like them.
Or link to some other discussions about them that are already on the forums.
Good luck.
