Hi all CruiserHeads ..!

Well after this post maybe you mean, " this man is totay and absolutly crazy "

The situation. I'm realy tired in my fight with rust specifically in my TLC roof. I'm not sure, but all of cruiser owners that live near ocean and with a lots of humidity maybe underestand me.

mi idea ..

Yep I know .. but this situation is, I'm not gonabe cotinue fixin the rust in the roof.

I think it would be sweet. My friends and i were talking about the same thing a few weeks ago. of course if you go for it post up lots of pics. Good luck

Pretty sweet, I agree. It's been done before. I would do it but my rigs don't have rust in the roof. Have fun with it.

How about a nice 60 series ute

 

[brownbear]

Thats a sweet Ute!

That is an awesome idea. I think I would even bob it on the ass end. Or build a fibreglass camper shell to bolt on to it.

Erik Jones? from Fla cut the roof off his 60 and added a roll cage. It was pretty sweet. You might search the 60 section for pics too. You could try emailing him for a pic too. fj60erik@netscape.net

How about these two?

I think it is a great idea. Have the best of both worlds: 4 door passenger vehicle that is also a convertible. I have been wanting to chop the top off something for awhile now. I think I would rather do it to a FJ55. They just look too cool with no roofs. Now to find a 55 for cheap so I can start using my sawzall and my torch. Here Piggy, Piggy!!!

Good luck, have fun with it!

i did a 60 simular to the brown one in the pic, i hacked the top off in 2 hours, did a saskawan body job (duct tape over some old rags) and wheeled it for a weekend. had a blast, stripped it on monday... too much fun. i would do it again in a heart beat...
cheers

David, look on the internet for Can Back 4Runner canvas top pictures for ideas for the mounting. Their tops is one of the best in the market. I'd suggest you do all you can to preserve the hard top side profile or you'd change the looks of the vehicle substantially. Compare the factory soft top for the 40 series to the aftermarket ones like BestTop, etc. and you'll know what I mean.

Yes, you are totally and absolutely crazy, but I like this crazy idea.

Dave

ok then here's the other shot of it, thank Henry C. from who I shamelessly pilfered these many lifetimes ago-
