Thanks everyone for your PM's. As Gav suggests, the tops are "not designed" to fit Australian manufactured cobra bodies and they would require small to large mods to make them work. If you have a DAX, ERA or F5 you may be OK depending on what top you selected.

Gav's HT looks a treat but did require some mods to suit the CR body.

In essence, the idea is to bring in a few as a HT base to work from but everyone who buys is going to need to do their own mods small or large to suit their desired outcomes.

I'm also looking at the new Backdraft top (although I hate the gullwing door shape) as I know it will fit my car and also comes with the windscreen and A pillars affixed which is a completely different design to Mr Bruce's where his top affix to existing windscreen frame etc.

From the PM's I have, most want the certainty that the tops will fit their cars (bolt on without mods) which I can't and won't offer. Its completely up to those interested to have the confidence to modify from a base and turn it into something that works. Its not hard but for some it may be considered so.

If I get 5 people who are happy to accept the above I'll work towards arranging something but if not that's cool too.

If you want to see what they look like go to the "For Sale" section and look up hard tops by "MrBruce".

Regards

Matt
