We are a convertible top manufacturer located in Walden NY 12586 (Hudson Valley, north of Manhattan about 45 miles). We have been contacted by customers trying to locate the STC, Kayline products. Due to these inquiries we are developing a top and frame assembly similar to the KAYLINE/STC/BIG BUCK/WHITCO products. We are developing this top to have the fold down frame, dielectrically sealed side windows,etc to be as close in appearance as possibly for a local customer in CT. It will be available in a variety of materials and colors. This product will not be able to be installed over the old frames, it will only fit the frame we provide. Please visit our website - www.aro2000.com - for more info on our company. We are working on this project during our winter schedule and hope to have it ready to sail this spring. We do not have a listing for this item on our website since it does not exist yet. we would appreciate your input and ideas. Thanks! www.aro2000.com

and I have a post in here about a new company;

Classic Roadsters - kit roadster building & Bronco "no-drill" tonneau/full tops w/Haartz nylon material in development

"1980-96 Bronco Soft Tops

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

by Bill of Classic

Classic Roadsters II, the company I work for, is going to start making a tonneau style and possibly a full size soft top for the Bronco. We have our own upholstery shop that has been in business for about 28 years and have produced soft tops for our cars as well as full interiors so experience is top of the line here. I am just trying to find out how much interest there would be in these. We are going to make them out of Haartz nylon material, this is a very high quality material, and it would come with either a clear or tinted window. The top will mount using your existing hard top holes, so you will not have to drill any holes, the tailgate section will be secured with an industrial strength velcro, so no drilling will be necessary there either. The tonneau style top will cost $375.00, and the full soft top will be $500.00

Please give me some feedback I would really like some opinions from some true Bronco lovers like myself."

Latest news from Bill

"Sorry it has been a while since I have updated out here, we got our prices on getting our mounting pieces made and we are looking at about $500 for the cost on the top. This is higher than we had expected, but we did not want to use cheaper materials to bring the price down, this is still not a solid figure and we may end up being able to do it a little cheaper, but as of right now this is the price we are looking at.. 4drbronko we will be attaching the rear portion with velcro as well, but I do like your idea and will definately look into something like that. Jackstraw, we have not done anything for a center support, but it would be very simple to add a bar across the middle to keep the water from collecting there. Thanks for all the input guys!! Bill"

Please let me know when and how I can order this for mine
