 I guess I lucked out when I got mine, it came with a factory 2 piece hardtop, the front is just like the swb version in the states, the back window is just about the same, only it mounts to the tailgate and swings with the gate instead of lifting up. The back of the top goes straight up like the swb fiberglass hardtop.

How about turning it into a pick-up like the one I just bought ?

It's all been handmade by the guy I bought it from. The lid is a made to measure galvanized metal plate with rounded corners. The rear"window" is also handmade by some-one that makes campertents  ;)
If you'd like detailed pics to copy, just let me know, I'll send them or post them here.

I'll get too it tomorrow ( it being almost 22.00 now and really dark ).
I'll be working on the bumper/pushbar we are making and the Calmini shackle reversal kit I just bought  8), but I will find time to take pictures of the pick-up's rear. Any questions/pics in particular ?

Not realy, i guess the back "cap" is going to be the most difficult, but it looks like such a good job was done. oh if u could send a pic of your interior that would be cool to compair

Sorry, still didn't get round to taking decent pictures of the pick-up and it's already dark again. Went to Germany to a Streetfighter Motorcycle show today, came back and my wife had washed the Samurai, cleaning off all the beautifull mud I got on it last Sunday  :o).


I'll try and take the the pics tomorrow.
