We still don't have that worked out. We are waiting on samples of some new material and the sew shop has still not given us a price.

I'll bet you never thought retiring from you "normal job" a few years back would be so dam hard!

I have been retired 1 yr. 2 mos. now and am in need of a vacation. Don't know how I was able to go to work before :)
We are looking at Top Gun and another product this week. Both look about like sunbrilla but are stronger, do better in the sun and are more water resistant

up date, monday morning. I picked up Jason's EB from the top shop Sat. the top looks good in Top Gun. I will get some pictures before we take it off Jasons EB and put it on mine. I will be at the BBBB in Big Bear Ca friday. The front is the same part that we had in
Tenn. a week or so ago so the front part has 2400 miles in it, some at 80 mph. Hard to tell if it make any noise because I only have 1/2 doors but the topdoes not flap while going 80 mph.
Top Gun comes in about 20 colors and all will be available. I will post some pictures later to day along with the color chart. The top shop has still not come up with a price, hopefully today they will.

Thanks for the update. Once you get the price figured out will you be able to start production?
Thanks,
Gkling

Looks nice!!!!

Question...are the windows just behind the doors are part of the frame work? I guess I wondering if they come off when you take the rest of the canvas off.

Thanks

They are part of the frame work. They can be removed but are the foundation (stabilizing force)for all the other parts and the roof rack. Also the front edge of the window frame is where the stock door rubber mounts. The window frame also stabilizes the windshield frame through the above door metal parts. The whole top including the side window comes off with 10 bolts
