I made myself a SOFT TOP

I saw this soft topper for a F150 pick up with a 6.5' bed on craigslist for $50 and figured why not try to make it fit my 78 Bronco

with a little tweaking I made it fit


I am using the cab in-closure to hold the front for now and was able to use the front snap flap inside

I like it for $50

The seat was trashed so I took it and all the hardware out, my idea was to turn it into a very short pick up for now, I have another seat to put back there when I am ready too

WOW! You gotta a killer deal on that! Did you see that the retail on that is about $600? Exactly what I am looking for...but would most liekly keep it in the"upright" position and not enclosed. I would love to get my hands on one for $50!!!!

yea when I saw it on craigslist I had to pay car insurance, so I didn't have the extra cash,
but I asked him if he would hold it until the week end and he said yes, no one else had inquired about it anyways??
I was shocked and excited at the same time, I was going to wait to try to adapt it until this winter time but I couldn't stop myself ,
I had to try it now, it worked out pretty damn good, I will be leaving it just like it is now for a while,
I like it, it reminds me of a covered wagon???
