I finally got my M2A1 top from Jim Clark/Allied Forces Ltd. They're not cheap, but I think the quality is well worth the expense. I don't know the grade, but the canvas is very heavy and the zippers are the large brass YKK ones you'd expect on a military top. There are thick leather wear pads sewn inside where the top rubs on the corners of the pulpit. The workmanship is top-notch and it fits perfectly. I'm very happy with it.

Yes it does look really nice also looks like a lot of work to take off and on for a old guy like me.

Thanks for the compliment Mike. It is a lot of work for old folks like us working alone. Especially when you have two antique shoulders that hurt from just hoisting a bottle of beer. I think it'll just live up there for a while.

Thanks Gary. If you need the measurements and angles for those bent rods for your half-track, let me know.
