The center of the cutout should end 3-4" past the targa bar.  The center of the cutout in the picture ends about 18" past the targa.

Greg you are a nut with a good sense of humor and a great imagination! Drone Thanks for the photo! It helps me see what the voices can't picture......

I think this top will work. Those are the stock Sammy down posts from the OEM roall bar aren't they? Do to the forecast for rain I slid my soft top back on. Once it clears up a bit I will take some pics. (Providing my new camera arrives soon..... (Stupid High Tech stuff.....).

I went around the visibility topic earlier in this post. I mentioned the rear visibility issue because I am tall, several wrote back saying they are tall too but want the rear coverage.

I am over 6' and can see out the back. If I was a little shorter it would be even better. Remember, if you are not happy with our stuff, you can always return it with no hassle.

You cant lose, you can only be a winner. And winners like to go four wheeling and don't like sun beating down the back of their neck. Plus, chicks dig guys that have a "fastback" bikini top. See, another winner!

Tux, yea those are the stock down posts. Look foward to pics.

Greg, I took a day off Saturday to work in the G-Rage and I put on some new shoes (34x9.5x15) and shot some pics of the roll cage with my soft top on. (Yes, I got another D-Camera, lets see how long before this piece of crap breaks!)

Because my photography skills are much less than par Sunday after church I will come home and take the top off and snap a few pics. Maybe after a couple of dozen or so I will be able to get a few good enough to post.

Shucks, I'll even throw that turd of a Bikini top I have now on there for the full visual effect.... ROFL...... 

You got it Tux, standing by for images. 

Happy fathers day for those who are!

Worked all day yesterday getting out the bugs on the new Breeze-O-Top 1000 Denier Cordura Fastback Bikini Top. We improved the rear visibility for us tall folks but still kept the major downslope dimension for rear sun, wind and rain protection.

Start looking for them late next week at select Breeze-O-Top vendors.     We will not sell these from our site but want to give our loyal vendors first dibs on selling these nice tops.

Almost there,

Greg

I know ..... you thought I got lost rite? LOL... Well with rain everyday it's tuff to go topless. However I did buy a waterproff car cover and it seems to work out pretty well. It lets me run topless to work and home. If it looks like rain I just throw it on and go about my business.

Anyway, that being said I did take a few pics today so you can get an idea of what I am talking about.

Tux,

Nice rig by the way.  So, are we making a custom top to fit your Sami?


Remember, fight the flap, buy Breeze-O-Top.

Well crap I hit enter too soon and don't see an edit button.... Here are a few more:





another problem I might have with a longer top is the 2 mounting post you see in the middle of the rear roll bar. Those hold my Hy-Lift jack. When it is mounted in place it sticks up about 3-4 inches.

Right now the bar is uncovered but I plan on covering it with pipe wrap. (I know its vain but I think it will look good. Ha-Ha)

And........ that's my story and I'm stickin to it....                                         Tux...

Well, I am thinking  , maybe, just maybe, our new Fastback top may work. If your Hi-Lift is mounted on the roll cage I think it may still work. Of course it will "flow" over the Hi-Lift but because the top tapers inward it won't look lame, or will it?

We can start from there. If I have to I can put a reinforcement piece where the jack would hit the cordura.

What to think of that?  Or do you total top coverage like a Safari made to work with your rig?

I would be more interested in the Fastbach style top. I had a Safari top and sold it. Truth be known the standard Samurai soft top should be made like like uhhhh well uhhh JEEP. Ya I know I should'nt say that but its true. They are just damn nice. Sides / back window roll up and make a Safari Top.

Give me the measurements from the targa down to the nylon ties in each corner. I would also like the middle arch measurement. How long are the side straps that mount to the targa to windshield bar? I only have roll cage above my head. My roll cage for the driver & passenger is about 4-5 inches from the targa to windshield bars. The Bestop strap are to short by about 4 inches. In my opinion these s/b a cinch buckle and velcro ends so the don't flap aroun and sty put.

Somewhere in all of this the subject of $$$ should come up so that folks know what a great deal your going to make them on you newtop! 

Thanks for your help Greg!!!                                                          Tux... 

Our tops are made in a underground missile silo with big doors, everything is so secret with the dimensions and all. When I get the final Fastback Top version I can send it to you for a fit. I think we may get lucky as is.

How would that work? Give me about another week or so. We have a lot in the production line right now and this would be by far the least expensive way to do it at this time.

Hang in there and stay dry.

Greg

I understand your not wanting to display the dimensions... dangit and I wuz gonna git that ol Singer out and whack away at me  chev's  - tossed in da corner takin up space - tonnneau cover.

Your a gud Dude.... have a Super Weekend!!! 

Got the final version back from factory, it looks good! Tux, give me until next week or the following week for a sample. Trying to get out a bunch of Safari Tops out for next week.
