$10 Bestop
Some of you may have already heard this cool story but check it out. A few weeks ago i saw an ad for a white soft top for $10 in Reno NV. I called my uncle there and told him to go get it regardless of the condition. Well I just got it in the mail and it is in AWESOME condition. There are no rips, tears, holes and all the hardware looks to be in good condition too. After taking it out of the box I found another piece of fabric in there and it was a white bikini top in the same AWESOME condition.
I'm also the guy that bought a 71 bronco that had the camper on the back (No the camper was not part of the deal but the PO is letting me borrow it until I get a top). So now I'm getting ready to put it on but I need a little help. Does anybody have an instruction manual or a parts list for a Bestop. Its not a Bestop "Supertop" it's older than that. Check out the pics and please any advice or suggestions would be great. Thanks, Shawn "Gregg"

Re: $10 Bestop
What a great deal in every way - top, bikini, and its white! That is such a rare color. The instructions for the New Bestops are on http://www.bestop.com in .pdf format. They have to be similar.

Re: $10 Bestop
Looks like you made a very good purchase. From what I see most of the hardware is there except for some nuts/bolts. Here is the supertop manual: http://www.bestop.com/installation_guides/51533.pdf

Re: $10 Bestop
I think this is officially the deal of the year. I think it is going to be hard to top this purchase. Great job Shawn.

Re: $10 Bestop
I am soooo happy you got the Camper off - I may get a load of crap for this, but man the campers are ugly IMO.
