Geoffs(zooker) old lwb 
I also plan on doing this with my lwb hardtop. But make it suitable just for a bikini also. Studs across top of hardtop roof, With a foam/rubber strip under the softop so the water doesnt run back into the cab/hardtop seal |

sweet as timmay  was thinking the exact same deal with the studs and rubber. (why does that sound somewhat kinky?)
Id still prefer to have both tops as hardtops, but alas its becoming quiet a task to even get anyone to lend one let alone purchase one :/ |

Id rather have a soft front section. You can always fold it up. |

You could easily fold it up yourself. There is almost no curve to the roof so it is just the front and sides that require a lip folded over......easy to do with some booty fab. (mallet and block of wood) |
