here's a rare example of a soft top, as far as i know they were modified and sold as soft tops here in Aus, and only a selected number were done... correct me if I'm wrong, I'd love to know more....

Hey, is that the convertible that I saw many years ago kicking around Kingston/Logan area? Would love some good softop piccies up on here. Even better some photos of extra bracing or interior shots of the edge areas. Anybody?

Possibl, I bought it from a guy at maryborough, but who knows before then, I'll get some piccies and post them up when I get a chance, tell you what it handles well though, weekend went like a dream, all except for the alternator dying on the way home. Got home safely though

Ended up needing new bushes - thanks again Andy, your a life saver

where'd you get the pics from? thats awesome

I've never seen them before. would love to know where you got them from...

looking at putting a roll cage on the back, but will see how budgets go for now. Also looking at modifying the rear cross supports and boot lid, to make the opening for the boot a little bigger, and easier to access. Any ideas?
