Hello,
Currently on eBay these guys have listed a Oem style soft top and factory bow set with free world wide shipping.
In Australia I have zero options for these parts and the offer of free shipping puts makes it somewhat attractive plus the top looks very nicely made in the pics.
Has anyone ordered or know of the quality of the top and bows from these people? I have read about the body panels but there is no info on the tops.
Is there any other options for me I'm not familiar with that can supply to this part of the world?
I currently have a Bestop Softop but would prefer the factory looking soft top instead. As a reference the Bestop currently sells here for $1700.

Cheers for any info
 
Got a link?
 
Interesting option.

If I had the money I'd go for a Top from Marshal for $1480 and Real Steal bows for $1050. About the same money for a known source.
 
I have sent a few messages to them and received a prompt response each time.
He quoted me additional shipping charges to Australia even though the ebay ad said free shipping. He then said he would honour the free shipping for me as they did not mean to have free shipping to Australia or New Zealand.
The windshield channel is apparently not included in the frame kit and could be supplied for $100

From what I have read the Real Steel bows fit the early model doors and not suitable for my 84
 
If you choose Australia in the Shipping and Payments tab, it shows $50 USD. Given the list price is twice what Marshall charges, they better honor the listed shipping charge. For such an expensive item, I'd go with a trusted source. I wouldn't buy it on eBay, as the price is jacked up to cover the 10% eBay fee.

Not sure how you figure twice the price when your add in the cost of bows which are included. I also thought Marshall was no longer selling tops and you now dealt with the person who made them for him. Maybe this was just the early soft top. Not sure about the bows. What was not clear in the auction is what is included with the rear ambulance door option. If the bows that come with include the upper half pieces of the rear doors then wouldn't be too hard to work will barn doors. If not nothing special about these tops over other options.
 
I looked her up, fantastic work. Does anyone have a cost range for her products, or experience with one?
 
I vote for @Julie2006 at Anchor Stitch out of South Carolina. Look her up on FB.


Am I correct she is the one who was doing Marshall's top and he is having everyone deal directly with her now?

Certainty wasn't pushing the other company but their price is not double. Only unique thing is the ambulance doors.

Yes, I have her bikini top and the quality is way better than Best Top. I’ll be purchasing a soft top from her soon.
 
Yes, the tops from Anchor Stitch look very nice.
If you look through the photos some appear to fit very nice and some look like they have lots of loose material. This could be just the installation job I guess but if I'm going to spend that kind of cash I would like it to have minimal flapping.
The Ci Troa top comes with the soft upper rear doors or roll up rear window but again if anyone has any experience with these guys please share.
 
wow soft tops have certainly gone up in price since the last time I looked. Better get my sewing machine out again... my v1.0 homemade soft top isn't quite cutting any more.
 
Hi,
i got one from Anchor Stitch in october. great quality, but i had some tight spots in front as I have a metaltech roll cage that created a bit of a stretch so some additional width in the front would have probably helped. I'd buy again in a heartbeat!
best, ty

I too have a Trollhole top and it is freaking awesome. Looks so clean. I originally ordered the PVC option in black, but decided it wasn't for me. I sold it and got a tan canvas. It looks and feels absolutely great. I'll find a recent pic
