Default old style top

I keep trying to come up with the old style top that is sitting on a shelf with sliding side windows. I just like the look with smaller back window and all. Perhaps I can find the frame works etc and make one. Thanks for any help!

Not clear what help you are seeking. Are you trying to find a source for a top or for the bows? What car do you have?

Thanks. What I am looking for is the old style top and side windows. I do not want the large rear window. A source for the bows is a possibility if no one has a top they are willing to sell. I have a Factory Five Mark I. Almost 20 years old. thxs for reply DanEC

This how we did it, here in the UK. The clip in rigid rear screen, fits in the boot and lift is reduced when it's out. Feels cool in summer...

That looks terrific. Exactly the look I want. Who was the manufacturer of the top?

Hinoonaz,
Hit up FFCARS for FFR parts, they mainly focus on FFR cars, so your best place to churn one up. Know I saw one up for sale not too long ago. Good luck.

I did the origination myself and got a local coach trimmer to make it. The rigid rear screen is 4mm acrylic, formed with with a hot air gun over an oil drum.
