We are going in another direction with my Buddies 45 so we will be selling the FJ-45 Non Removable Top this is just the Cap itself, I will post more detailed pictures in the next few days. Asking $ 1500

Want to edumacate myself, if'n you know:
Isn't the metal roofcap interchangeable from the non-removable versions and all the other 45 pickups, short-bed, longbed, early or late, fixed-top or removeable top?
I understand the early ones have roof clamps in the front, and the later ones bolt down all the way around, but the bolt holes should match up in the gutter of all the 45 hardtops?

If so, other than front clamping vs. non-clamping, your lid/roof/cap should fit all the 45 pickup cabs?

Thx.

Mike,

I am pretty sure they are different, if I remember correctly the cabs are 3" shorter on the fixed top 45's.

 

[whitey45]

That would be correct!

Thank-you, gentlemen.
Forgot that the fixed cab was even more squished than the one in my longbed !

totally different caps. I tried for years to find a fixed top. and your positive that's off a fixed top? most fixed tops don't have the ribs in them or if they do then there are indeed 2 different fixed top roofs and you will need to make sure that fits the one your looking for. been there done that. my 64 fixed has no ribs.. of course this one may be ribbed for your pleasure. ymmv

Its a Fixed Top came over from Australia, Maybe thats why it has ribs ? We have measured it and I know for a Fact its for a fixed top, interesting that the one you have does not have ribs

weird.. I have a set of window slider gaskets from an aus fixed top 45 that are the same. Personally i'd rather have the ribs to stiffen it up. I know Marv said they didn't get a lot of the fixed tops in aus.. course i don't think we got that many over here either.
I can provide measurements from mine if you need to assist in your sale.. the cap is in the garage, truck is not but the cap is..
