Not to hijack your thread bug since you asked...
I have people interested but I have had only 1offer (and it wasn't really a serious offer it was so low).
Just listed it on our local FB Buy and Sell pages.  Got a guy says he's very interested but he won't come b to even look at it.

Still for sale.

Looks good Gary.  I know I sure like the canvas you did for my Skip top.  I like that you did a one piece front on this one.   That is how I would do mine if I do it again.

yeah i learned a thing or two from yours...i made sleaves on the front brackets with cord ties to wrap around the stantions,, and cut the opening sideways.. for a better seal..
it would take a compleate front redo to do that with yours... hindsight...and all.. :biggrin:

As someone who put on a factory(Defiance) skip top/canvas last year the extra boot around the front stantions looks great. Mine leaks like a sieve there and around the zipper seams. Yours looks much better than Monkey tape I use to seal the leaks ).

CanvasGuy

thanks  for the info... sfeaver..always want to improve on factory   :applause:
