CJ7 Metal Hardtop
I can't believe this thread came up. 2 days ago I found a metal CJ5 hardtop in excellent condition. I called the guy because I wanted to see how hard it would be to convert it to a CJ7 . It was already sold but he let me come over to look at it and it was so nice. It looked like it was almost new and he sold it with doors for $500. He already had the money and the next owner was coming to pick it up today. I'm glad a CJ5 guy got it because I would have butchered it trying to stretch it to a 7.
Anyway, I think a 7 with a metal hardtop would look great. I love the way Defenders and FJ's look with their hardtops and I would love to have a metal one rather than my fiberglass one. I'm sure fiberglass is a better choice for fit etc, but the unique factor appeals to me.
I had a 1948 CJ 2A that came with Sears & roebuck Aluminum hard top. Is was light, but rattled a lot, no insulation single wall. It kept the rain off , but you had to wear ear plugs.
