Someone asked after seeing the Bikini tops I have made, if I would make them a Bimini roof... How hard can it be.. I had to patch a hole in the guys old roof first but I think it all turned out well....







PS....Josh...you roof is ready .....

Here are a couple of the Bikini tops on 2 of our Zooks..

cool, I like the bimini over the bikini, just need one for a lwb (hint).

I would be a bit concerned about the "flapping" in a LWB... How much longer are they than a SWB ???? It may need some sort of side frame to support it.. That wouldn't be that difficult to make and the sides could clip onto the frame...

You could use the LWB soft top bars. Would work great

In the pic you can see the rear bar but there's a mid section bar too

Hmmmm ...Is this an original lwb soft top . If so I can see the center bar.. If they have roll up sides and roll up rear window, there would not be much point in destroying one to make a Bimini top as it is almost one already but with the advantage of dropping the sides etc if the rain started..

Ah righto!! I thought you were making them from scratch rather than dissecting a softy for it..

But either way if you had one that deserved a good dissection then the LWB bars would keep it Mickey Mouse or flapless

[Toomanycars]

Yes..Sorry, I am not making them from scratch.. I am simply turning old or faulty roofs into modified roofs..As long as it is in reasonable condition, it could easily turn into a Bimini however without a LWB Sierra to test fit it onto it may be a bit tricky. The one i just Moded was on and off the car 3 times.. One to do some chalk markings, the second to see how it was and if it needed any strengthening and a final fitting to make sure I was happy with it..

Compared to the daggy top I gave you missing the rear window, I'm stoked with the result! Thanks again mate

No worries.. Text me when you want to come and get it.. The boys take the rexs up Mt Glorious at night occasionally ,maybe they could meet you somewhere..Are you a night owl as they go up quite late..11ish or later...no traffic up there then..
