FJ25 Factory Soft Top Reproduction (1 Viewer)

[oregon fj]

Yes. I texted Julie this morning and she confirmed that my top was made with her PVC in buckskin.

Thanks for confirming. I ordered a buckskin top from her a couple weeks ago for my '64. Still another 6 weeks out.

I need a set of early A type bows. I could look into reproducing my 1960 fj25 soft top bows if someone is interested. Just keep in mind they won't be a few hundred bucks.

Does anyone have bows?

Seems that always been the problem, those with bows don't have a top and people with a top are looking for bows.

I have parts far far away that hope will be heading this way soon. Might I ask where yours are? Is a boat ride in their future?

These are the ones off Tucson? Forgot you got Sean's 25. So no one has produced aftermarket bows yet? I was looking at my collection of doors and seen the piece that Jim G. had made years ago. Bows did not seem as hard to reproduce using later bows as the early doors are.

My original thought on far far away was Archie who can't remember if he was going to be in New Zealand or Australia. I know he was working on doors and was possibly moving to Australia.

Does anyone have a set of B bows for sale? Need soft doors also. For an FJ25.

I have some of the B type bars. I was going to hack then up to make an A set. Not sure if you could have a replica A set made in exchange somewhere.

I wish I knew a source for the A's for you, no other 25's around here to even copy the B bows from.
