I shouldn't think that it would be too hard. Just put something over a fastback and make the mould :D

That looks cool, must have a go at some fibreglassing. B)

Still prefer the soft-top but both have their own advantages.

I have been given an old ifor Williams hard top from a Subaru(brat) pickup, the angle that meets the body of the Jimny is perfect as well as the width. Just needs shortening by a couple of foot. Using standard softop fixings and larger rubber seal. Will post pictures when i get round to finishing.
