Yep, I have kicking the idea around for a while now. The closest I've come
to a idea without butchering the roll bar or windshield frame is to take a
front bow from a soft top or cut the front portion off of a hard top,make
rods that will go back from the front bow. I don't know how tall you are but
on my 69 the roll bar is to low and the top will touch the top of my head. I
would need to raise it up about 2-3  inches. I have a hard top I can cut up
but no time. Let me know if you make something and how it works.
