Are soft tops available?
Hey I am looking at buying a LA exotic and I was wondering if there are any soft tops available? Sure, i understand they all leak but is there any sort of soft top that will fit on this, and would it fit in the trunk so it can be pulled out just in case?
If so are they still available?

Being a newby here, I certainly have looked at some odd roof covering ideas. The Acton seems to have the best look to me. Some look rather odd, but I guess it might be due to roll bar height? The hard top really looks odd. Is that a correct cobra thing or just some thing someone came up with to keep the rain off?

Indeed the roll bar has a lot to do with the roof line. Some people make shorter roll bars to tuck under the tops, others modify the tops over just the bar area, and others make a roof that looks like the Munster Mobile to get it over the bar. They aren't too bad a look and function, bearing in mind it's horseless carriage technology.

Have you ever fit this soft top on a CSX4000/6000 with the stock roll bar. The aft leg enters the body cut out farther aft then any other Cobra ( AC ? ). I have seen soft tops split and wrapped around the aft leg ? A friends Superformance has a well fitted hardtop. The line is not unattractive and the attach fittings are well designed and function great. Like the " horseless carriage " analogy.............

I have it shown on a 6000. I use the piece of material that comes out of the back window to sew a pocket and a bump for the roll bar rear brace and hoop top respectively.

After studying the web photo I see the pocket you created. The hump for the top of the roll bar is hardly noticeable. I had a 1958 TR3 so I understand " assemble it "tops. How fast have you tested it. Do you sell the CSX top with your mod incorporated? My list for your products keeps growing........
