Started the proccess of building a hard top for the rig, the first stage will be to put a 300 mm extension on the cab which will then house the sounder, gps and radio. The mext stage will be to manufacture a aliminuim windscreen frame, power coat then fit it to the cab extension. Next the clear glass will be fitted. For the time I will then attach the soft top as a temp measure until I get keen again. So far all I have done is built the mould for the cab extension, now wait a week for the 2 pack to harden and onto the next stage, the glassing
cheers

went for years mate with no $, all spent raisin my kids. they are now all grown up. so when i had no $, if I wanted something, it was build it or go without. Still no money because I dont like to work too much, so I still build it. In saying that, I wouldnt mide a 24 to 30 footer but that will mean full time work, probable not worth the effort, rather be fishin
cheers

Blaze, did you ever end up making that hardtop?
I'm thinking of making a f/glass one for my cruise craft outsider and would be ineterested in any info or comments you could pass on.
Thanks in advance, Mark
