Soft top holes

[pardion]

Could someone with a factory soft top from a 1960 "B" type top, with top bows similar to an FJ40 do a lay out of the Twist Snap holes? Perhaps start at the tailgate opening and round the corner foward to the front door opening and jot down the spacing of the Factory holes. I think I have over 100 non factory holes to weld up on this FJ25. My record is 220 holes on a FJ40 tub, so this 25 is in excellent shape! Thanks in advance. John Pardi

I'll try and do this this weekend if Phil doesn't first, my grey one still has the twists in place. No other holes in the rim. Are you getting a soft top made remember it's cheaper in volume buys.

Just a reminder :- Incase you guys forgot me, I am already in for one "Type A" soft top under volume buy scheme. My favorate color / material is Olive Drab / Water Proof Canvas.

WOW john,

I always love to see a well protected FJ25 like this.

By the way soft top holes are same for TYPE-A too.
