    "SOLD" An Original Soft top & Roger Stein's last Tonneau cover

    This is the original soft top FFR sold for the Mark I's ( it should fit any of the Mark I - III ) before Whitby offered a soft top.
    I have a top all assembled and a new - still wrapped up - vinyl top material that has never been used yet.
    Also have the "hard" side windows - slightly used as I had them since 2000, the steel bows, and even a copy of the old install documents
    There may also be some hardware pieces that I have not found yet.
    IF there is any interest in the top I'll get pictures taken of what I have.

    I'm not selling the top but will give it to someone that might get some use out of it!

    I also have a Tonneau cover that was Roger Stein's last cover he made. It's made out of very strong sail boat material and is in great shape. I also may have the pins for the body that are needed to snap the cover in place. It was all designed to use the same pins the soft top used.

    Again I'm not selling the tonneau cover but will give it to someone that might get some use out of it!

    ALSO if you register for the LCS this next weekend I will deliver it to you there!


    Pic's to follow if there is any interest in this.
    More parts to follow as I clean up the parts storage.

    Hey Ralph,

    I’m interested in the tonneau cover and will be at LCS. Driving North now and will be in Columbus next Wed through Sunday. See you then.

    Thanks

    Here is what I have - except for the still in the packaging a new soft top the rest is well used BUT functional!

    a General Pic of what I have - in the middle is a wrapped up new top never installed

    hardware to install_1.jpg
    The hardware to install the top and inserts for the doors for the hard side curtains


    Unused Soft top_1.jpg
    Here is the complete soft top ready to put on the car

    The bows - one was cut and then rewelded and the side curtains are well used BUT still work well.
    The welded pins on the bottom of the side curtains - the rear ones have been removed.


    The top worked rather well on my car. The only reason I'm giving it away is I managed to find a Premium Softtop that I have just completed installing on my car.

    I also have the original documents for the top install

    Hi Ralph

    Do you still have the soft top? Just bought a MK2 today and would not mind having a top at times in Texas.

    Thanks
