craigslist STC soft top score today

Picked up a new in the box white STC soft top today in Seattle. $400 bucks. I called about an hour after the ad was posted and was still second in line. First guy was unable to make it, so I got it. Nice score. Exactly the top and color I wanted. Very lucky since they are out of business now. Not sure yet if it is a Snap Top or a FastTrack since I had my brother close the deal for me.

Good score Kieth, that should look great on your truck. Got a break with all the doctors, should be sending out the fabric shortly
Post up pics. when you get it

I had a new in the box fastrac I sold about 8 years ago. I bought it right before they went under. Kick myself everytime I think about it since I sold it. Never even opened it.

Re: craigslist STC soft top score today

Would you be willing to draw me a pattern for the top and a diagram of the hardware so I can build one? I'd be willing to pay you for your time and shipping.

Great score. I've got a PDF of the install instructions if you need it.

Hey Rocketman.

I could do that. Right now I plan to leave it in the box. I will not get a chance to install it until spring and don't want to unfold it out and then try to get it back in the box. When I do open it up I'll get it unfolded out in the sun to relax and try to do that for you.

That would be great, there are probably many here who could use it also. I'd be happy to pass it on when I'm through.

Oh it's cool, I ended up getting a really good deal on some built 3/4 ton axles, which is why I passed on the top. Plus I didn't want to ruin a nice pristine white top while I'm out hunting and off roading. Glad it went to a good home! Cheers
