Hello all,
Hope you are working on your car and doing well.
I can't remember where I saw it; I am looking for the bikini top that straps to the windshield and two rollbars. I need to prevent skin cancer.
Thanks,
Jeff

There were a couple of options, one of which I know for sure isn't made any more.
Option 1 - LeMans Hard top developed by Peter Fritsche (gpete on the forum) - he doesn't make these any more and sold out of them in 2020 - EXAMPLE (https://thefactoryfiveforum.com/showthread.php?44479-Complete-Kit-MKIV-with-Gen-2-Coyote-for-Sale-READY-for-JEFF-MILLER&p=508340&viewfull=1#post508340) - YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D072J3Dfx38&t=6s&ab_channel=PeterFritsche)
Option 2 - bimini top - I believe Dave Albertalli (SJDave on the forum) sold these - made from camping poles and fabric - LINK (https://thefactoryfiveforum.com/showthread.php?42024-Bimini-Top-Winter-Sale-Regular-Price-950-ON-SALE-for-750-single-color-top)

I am no longer a forum vendor and have stopped selling the Bimini Tops after 20 sold. Just couldn't make any money selling them, no CNC equipment in my shop and I don't sew, so farming that out is expensive. Maybe someone else will give it a try! Good luck!

Any way you could post the plans somewhere online for others to iterate on it?
