   For that kind of money, you could get the real deal. The top is great, though.

   Too bad about the V6, nice looking jeep, very unusual color choice, but looks good. Another side mounted axe with a nice method of securing it. The spare rim with no tire, recreates the early jeeps sold after WWII

   It is amazing how many of these dam exports think the bow clips for storing the top bows are made for a ax holder and call the jeep restored…Phil in Mt

   The spare tire bracket isn’t even mounted in the correct spot. Don’t like the bow holders painted a different color. Nice top

   Can’t say I like the rims either, but someone did a nice job overall.

   This jeep has a nice look but whats with all these jeeps with an axe in the top bow holders? By the way anybody out there have a vintage canvas top they would like to sell?

   Morning Peter. There’s a company here called New Life Canvas. They specialize in canvas tops and accessories. Comparable to beachwood tops but a lot cheaper. I just ordered one for my high hood. The bows are made in Minnesota and not the cheap ones from md juan. Their website is http://www.newlifecanvas.com

   Fellas, fellas! Those aren’t bow bracket holders. Look closer, they are actually axe holder brackets. Bow brackets might have not even belonged there, it is a ’48. It could be a “lefty”, which might explain why that spare wheel bracket is off a little. But nothing can explain why he put the tailgate stencil on the wrong side! And on both sides of lower cowls. And mid ’60’s cj5 wheels. Still like the top though…

   Oh Todd, now you’re just being silly. I’ve never seen the stencils on the cowl before. Have to do research when restoring these jeeps

    Thanks Chris for that tip. Last time i checked I think the Beachwood complete top early style was $3400 bucks!

    I think the wheels are of a later vintage as well. The early CJ2 AgriJeeps had the spare tire mounted in almost the same location as this one does.
