    3/4 top on 109

    Anyone have a good photo of how the 3/4 canvas top attaches to the pickup cab?

    Also, is it possible to get the front part of the canvas without an opening so you can keep 3/4 canvas on but pickup top off.

    i'm going to be putting a 109 3/4 on a sankey wide track. i figure i'd hang a piece of canvas from the front loop then put the 3/4 over it.

      what if you used a land rover fume curtain?

      it might be a touch too big, but our hosts seem to have a used forward control fume curtain for sale that just might do the trick. someone who knows the pertinent dimensions may need to chime in though...

          While on the topic of canvas tops does anyone have any opinion/experiences as to genuine versus non-genuine tops? In addition, I am leaning towards no side windows as I remember my first car, CJ7,soft top's windows would crack and scratch. Same with Rover windows?

            i've a 1 y/o non original full tilt w/ windows from our host. it's still fitting and looking great. in my opinion all clear plastic clouds in time. as for cracking...i try to never roll up or down when temps are below 60* F
