    Percival, my '59 CJ-5 is in need of a new top thanks to some local vandals. Now comes the hard part - I had a soft 1/2 cab on him, and really would like to keep the half cab, or use one of the original style "convertible" style top arrangements.

    Beachwood is the only outfit I've been able to find that can make the "convertible" tops, or the Half cab - very pricey.

    Are there any alternatives out there? New Life doesn't seem to have those patterns for the CJ-5

    Any Ideas?

    Thanks in Advance-

    Eck

    Is the damaged top still usable for a pattern? Maybe New Life could sew you a new one based on the one you have.
