Not mine (maybe somebody else's here?) but looks like a pretty clean single wall top if somebody is looking for one...

Might be worth a drive down , I need a top and cant find anything up here in Vancouver ! Idelly i need a double wall though

What makes you want a double-wall (just out of curiosity)? That's what I have on mine, but I've always been under the impression that everyone prefers the single-wall tops...

Personally, I'd love to have this single-wall, but it isn't really a NEED right now. My hatch needs some work, but overall my double-wall is in good shape. I definitely have more pressing concerns to work on.

It's not that i prefer the double wall but my 72 only has the holes in the bedside to mount a double wall. I'd rather have a single wall any day of the week if my bedside had the proper hardware to mount it because my side panels wouldn't have to come off to remove the top. i know some 72's had both sets of holes , mine unfortunately only has the double wall unthreaded set.

Aahh... Gotcha. Now that you say that, I remember reading that only some of them had both hole types. No idea if mine has both or not. I might have to look now... Mine is a CST, but the sidewalls in the back are gone. I've been debating fabricating some replacements, but with the double wall top I may hold off.
