Well, the top came today! Fits perfectly and I like the look of the Jeep.
BUT... There will be a problem with scale figures. My DiD "Dixon the medic" used to peek over the windshield as do other 1/6 scale figures. I don't think I would be able to stretch the top over his head; especially if he wore his helmet. Right now my driver is an unknown toy figure from a thrift store wearing a uniform I bought from Amazon. I pulled the feet off so he can slouch on the seat and bent him as much forward as possible, but there is still a bump in the canvas. It will be acceptable to take the Jeep out crawling this way, but I will look at the way the head is mounted. Maybe I can slice a 1/4" out of the neck to make it look better.
Dixon has to be my fair weather driver when I go out without the top.
