Well I was suppose to buy my uncles friends Fastback but I found me a thing that is in workable condition for about the same price. Really having problems debating on which one i want more. A few things about the thing it does have the hard top but has no windows or seals at all. How many companies amde hard tops for things and are windows hard to install on them. Also looking for a good parts place for things. Thanks for your help in advance.

Check on the other forum. Freak City is selling new Robbins Thing top for less than retail...

My last Thing had a Thing shop top on it. The Thing I just got has a Robbins top on it. I really liked the Thing shop top quite a bit better. The side clips on the Robbins are not as well attached, so they have started pulling out. The Robbins seems to be a little more pliable, but I also have a few pinhole leaks, I am guessing because it is so much thinnner. I would pay the extra and get a Thing shop top if it was me.

hope this helps,
Craig

What did you end up doing about your soft top?
