    Default Wanted: 88" Tropical Top

    I'm looking for an 88" tropical top in good shape. All I need is the top as I already have the "safari" sides. Please reply or email me at sethpatt at juno dot com.

    Thanks,

    Default update

    I still haven't come across a roof yet. Several leads but nothing definite. Thanks for the ebay link, I'll check it out.

    Does anyone have an idea what a decent tropical roof should run?

    Thanks,

    Default Top

    No clue, I'm kind of curious my self. I cant decide if i want to get rid of mine or not. Depends on what i can get for it. I would love to get one of Pangolin's new soft tops, but i don't know about getting 1300 for my top.

    If your interested i can send pics. its from a 90 though i think, it has the rounded windows, no alpine windows or vents.

    There is a lady in New Mexico that has one listed on Ebay:
    DustyKowboy or Mountain Trading Co.

    Its listed at over $600.00 though.

    I purchased a complete set of NAS Series III amber lights from her...good person and honest descriptions.

    I paid $500.00 for mine in about 1998, so $600.00 today is CHEAP.

    I think getting up over a grand is a bit hogh; however if the vents are working properly and there is no damage and good galvanizing on the rails, I could see a grand or more.

    The rear vents have been NLA for years now, so be sure they work (mine don't).

    I don't think the series III rovers were offered in the US with the safari top.

    Of course, it may be a UK spec vehicle, or a mongrel too...

    And by the way, my top was just the top, no roof sides with it.
