Will the factory mounting points for the roof rack be eliminated when the pop top goes in? I forgot how much of the roof will be removed.

my understanding is the holes will remain but will be covered by the alu-cab

it should'nt be, that was with the wide nose to make room for the V8

New shoes.
Got my work schedule rearranged so I will be able to drive it home towards the end of the month. Got my wife to take vacation so she will join me.

Man, you're getting it done quick!

I would love to eventually get a pop top for my Troopy. Maybe next year after I recover from the HDT swap expense.

Nothing wrong with that. Time = money and I’m getting to where time is more important

Nice snow cap’d mountains leaving Bend until you get into the Mt Hood national park-hwy 26.

Funny that they still have these signs on. Wonder if they have these on all year?

The 101 on the Olympic Peninsula is a nice scenic drive

Alu-Cab has done some nice upgrades, got to keep up with the Jones’s
They now include a nice over head shelf with master switches for the lights and power ports in the top.

And also include a solar connector on the top rear of the top
