I sent the PO a photo of the new soft top only to find out that he passed away last November. So sad. His wife said he loved the Patrol and was pleased it went to a good home.

Re: Soft Top Frame and Rear Doors Reproduction
I’d really like one. I’d like a canvas over the pvc. Is this possible?

Hi Raul-rrodriguezsal wrote:Yes Sr. This Patrols is in very very good condition. For me is a proud that owner of one car in this condition let me work on it. The hard top is on very good shape and when we remove were very carefully. The cabin was almost perfect and car looks good too, but because owner wants to ask for special plate "ANTIQUE" and hard top was not original He must to shift to original condition or soft top. By sure the car will looks great at the end. The canvas will be built with size and location of Windows like old style canvas but with zippers to roll out easily sides and back window.mad4hws wrote:Wow Raul. that hard top looks like it is brand new. I am guessing that it will look better with the soft top though. Nice work!
Thanks

We are interested in one of your soft tops. We just need a replacement for the fabric. Do you have them available in canvas? We have a PVC one currently on our Patrol but it shrunk and became discolored in the sun. We are nearing the finish line on the restoration of our '65 Patrol.
Thanks!

Re: Soft Top Frame and Rear Doors Reproduction
Raul,
I have a '63 that was originally from south America and from what I can tell it was originally a soft top (although it has a hard top on it now). I would love to purchase a soft top from you. would like to discuss the options.
Thanks,
Mike

Re: Soft Top Frame and Rear Doors Reproduction
Hello sir, when you get this, inform me how to send payment for a soft top frame for my swb 1969 L60. I will need the windshield channel if you can source one. Happy holidays from California
