Re: 72 Jimmy looking for bikini top
No one makes a bikini top for first gens. I made mine out of aluminum. no drilling required

Re: 72 Jimmy looking for bikini top
I would try a boat shop that makes covers. I think they will be your best place to try.

Re: 72 Jimmy looking for bikini top
And last question for anyone who can help, how do I attach an image(s) in a post? I see where I can link out to a URL, but not how I can attach an image.

Re: 72 Jimmy looking for bikini top
Hey. Your Welcome. I had him make one for my Brothers Blazer several years back. The upholstery Shop does good work.

Re: 72 Jimmy looking for bikini top
I started with the Bestop for a CJ7. Just trim, fold, stitch and attach. The attach part was much harder.
