I have a fastback soft top in very nice condition and includes the unique and hard to find alpine bow thingy. $700 plus shipping.

Ken,
Just to clarify, you have:
the mount on the B Pillar goes from one end to the next
the bow and mounts to the tub below the bottom of the rear window and
the rear metal piece that affixes into the top and goes above the rear soft top tailgate correct?

Ahhhhhh......nope. I have the top and the bow that attatches to the B Pillar. No other hardware. I never used it , and was unaware that there might be other bits required........then again, I do have lots of top hardware lying around, and have no idea what they go to.......if someone can show me pics of the stuff, I will see if I do have it..thanks......

Took this pic yesterday. I believe the only thing the fastback needs it the bow above the b-pillar. Although I don't actually know if there are any other parts...

nah... clay was right:
1 bar at the top of the window behind the roll-bar
1 bar at the bottom of the window to stay tight (window/top snaps to it)
1 bar at the back (this may even be the same bar on any rear soft-top has/uses)

I wish I never sold mine. Had no choice went to jump seats. Pics of the bars you need. Without them the top would flap like hell.

In photo number 2 is that the same alpine bar that goes between the two roll cage bars? To me it looks like it is with some brackets to mount it to the roll cage.

Nope. Specific to this top. Best top should make these again. I bet they
would sell well. Badger?

Thanks Keith,Brian and Brent. So, I do have the bow in Brent's middle pic but not the others. Clear pics of the other two parts would be a great help, to see if I can scrounge them up.
O.B. O. on the top and bow!!!

You have the important one then. The middle bar in pic three is just a straight tube with three snaps on it. Two little clips just screw onto the tub to hold bar in place. Probably found at a hardware store. Easily made. The back is just a tailgate bar.

Horsey-stalking you...it's actually my shortcut when lincoln is a parking lot, which is basically everyday.

Ken,
I am not in need of a fastback as I have one. I was just making sure that you had all the pieces for any potential buyer of the top. Good discussion guys.

ahh stephen threw a fastball with the endcaps, forgot those. Brent is right on the pipe and I believe on the tailgate piece (try Badger for this one), I actually replaced the lower tube mine with a piece of heavier steel so it would not flap so much.

That is one hideous top! I don't think that there is enough interest to produce a top like that.

In it's defense, if you are tall, you need that extra bump out behind the b-pillar. A regular drop curtain doesn't fit if you have to lean the seat back as far as I do.

But Chris, they wouldn't be hideous if you made them!
But in all actuality, it's really just a half-cab's ugly step cousin...
