According to the photos on the ad and the text, this is an older "snap" type Kayline (side rails have snaps that you snap the top to), unlike the newer "fasttrac" type top. You will also have to drill into the tailgate to install snaps, but that is no biggie. I don't think these windows zip out, only roll up. But man, you stole that top for $270! Great buy!;D;D;D

What Mac says! The windows are roll-up. Good buy for an NOS Kayline top. Wait for a real hot day to install it if it's been folded up for ~20 years! In fact I would recommend waiting for a hot day to unfold it out of the box. You don't want to crack any of the windows.

Been looking for some time now for a deal...

I think they are selling a lot of these one at a time on ebay. Keep your eyes peeled if you want one. Its the second time I have seen it listed.

But fingers crossed... Time takes its toll on those plastic windows. But for that price I thought it was worth it. Can have a friend sew in new windows down the road I suppose. I don't mind drillin a few holes either. My truck is more of a camp/trail rig that I drive on the weekends and to my vacation/camp spots. My friends were not impressed with the 75MPH wind for hours on end in the back seat :-0. Bought it more for them than me.

I kinda like the idea of roll up windows and nothing to stow.

Here are some shots of my former EB with a Kayline top (SCT fastrac edition) with the windows rolled (I loved the look too and as you said, nothing to stow)!

Rolling up the windows scratches them up fast. Also, clear windows brown up with age and also get brittle. Not a bad price tho!
