Series 3 LWB Canvas top
« on: May 28, 2015, 04:43:02 PM »
Looking for a canvas top in good condition for my 1978 series 3 long wheel base land rover.
I am looking to get the canvas top which has the extension on the back which goes below where the tail gate would normally be.
Also 2 opening flaps in the side would be ideal as that is that type of top mine used to have being an ex radio vehicle
If anyone has one i can buy or knows of a good place to get them i would greatly appreciate some help.

If your after an original I'd be willing to swap a new one (with some $$ your way) for mine, its in pretty good condition, its a FFR one as my series has a GS tub I don't need the lower flap.
