I bought a similar top from an eBay seller. It's okay, but the fit could be a lot better and the seems could be much, much stronger. You get what you pay for.
bpnorthwest.com sells Robbins tops for a reasonable price. It's probably worth the extra 40-50 bucks to get the Robbins top.

if the top will only be occasionally used then you might try https://www.aabestco.com
Might be the same manufacturer.

Don Trimmings also makes a good top (though more expensive)
https://www.donhoods.com
https://www.Prestigeautotrim.com is another source (though I have never seen one)

BTW, I think https://www.lbcarco.com is a don trimmings distributor.

Unorganized, but quite comprehensive!!
Just for what it's worth, I got a top from J. C. Whitney (Witless?) which actually was quite good, good fit and had a 100% lifetime guarantee (which I used about 4 years later and got another top from them because some stitching had started to come apart) Now, maybe I just got lucky, considering some of the stories I have heard, but I feel I got a good buy on that item!

I certainly LIKED that feature Jack!!! I have often thought about getting one of the boat-canvass guys I deal with to whip me up a light-weight "sun top" to replace the regular, all-weather top, using the same frame, no back window or anything, just straps to the rear top fittings! That would be perfect for the summers down here!

I bought one this winter from topsonline, but I was waiting for a warm day to put it on. It looks alright as is, but I'll report more once I get it on. The nice thing (or maybe not)is all the hardware is already mounted to it. $180 I think with shipping if I remember right.
