    Just bought a Kelly Deluxe top to put on my 52 m38. Was wondering if anybody has any pics or guidence as to how it attaches to the windshield frame, or any tips on the overall fitment on my jeep? Thanks a ton! Steve

    the biggest thing is to fit the top and doors at the same time. if you fit the top first and its too far forward or back the doors wont fit right

    Flat fenders are a littlr different than the 5. I had one on the 3B. The top bolted to the windshield frame along the top. There were panels with the door hinge the screwed to the side of the windshield frame and the body in front of the door opening. I have a soft top on it now but I may have a couple of pictures at work. Again, if you post some pics we may be able to give you more info. I will check at work tomorrow. Meanwhile check this link. Not a real good top pic but may help.

    I am going to go pick it up on Sunday. Its only the shell with no glass, but I couldn't pass up the deal(almost free):) Its very solid with no rot, just some rust along the hinges for the back window.
