Top Bows — Who sent me a Top Bow question?

UPDATE:  It turns out Mike still operates the business  topbows, but is too busy with his current project, so topbows is temporarily closed.   He mentions in the comment below that John Bizal at www.midwestmil.com has bows as well.  Thanks Mike!

Yesterday morning I received a question from a reader regarding where to purchase top bows for a CJ-2A (they had checked with topbows.com and found they weren’t in business).

Unfortunately, I can’t find that email (please re-email me if it is you) — it is possible I accidentally deleted the email as I’m still getting used to my new android phone. Why I’m perfectly capable with a computer and perfectly in-capable with a phone still confuses me ….

Since I don’t know of anyone that sells top bows, I did some searches on CJ-2A Top Bows, but had no luck.

Then I remember that Beachwood Canvas carried various top-related items.  After a quick tour of their site, I found  they  sell a complete set or just the front set.  You can follow this link https://www.beachwoodcanvas.com/order/productlist.cfm

Then, select CJ-2A from the drop down list of Vehicle types & Group 18: Body, Body Parts and Kits.  Finally, enter the search term ‘bows’.  Bows are $195 for the front set and $350 for an entire set.

(08/30/2010) I’m not sure if that is supposed to be an artistic paint job or a repair.

1946 CJ-2A Payette, Id **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: Was on eBay

(12/26/09) This build looks interesting as it has some unique touches.  The top is certainly unusual and is probably a relief on hot summer days. I’d like to get some more detail pics of this one.

“This jeep has given us much fun on off-roads and hunting trips. It hasn’t been driven on the highway since we have owned it. We trailer it to and from the mountains. We purchased it from the original owner, who bought it new in 1946 and has since passed on. We have made a lot of changes since we’ve owned it. These changes include diamond plate on part of the body, and we Rhino-lined the rest of the outside body, (has a small crack in Rhino-line on hood). Includes a wider wind shield than original. (see pictures)  It has a removable vinyl top that converts easily into a bikini top. Zip-off side windows can be attached to the top. Removable vinyl covered half doors. Full front bench seat with saddle blanket seat cover and shoulder-strap  seat belts. CB Radio with antennae, cassette/radio player and speakers.  Tilt steering wheel. Oil, temp and volt gauges but no speedometer. Roll Cage. Gun rack above windshield inside holds 1 gun. Front and rear heaters. 12 Volt system with new battery. Front wiper on driver side. Auxillary front lights. Power Steering. Front-end has a little play in steering. Buick V-6 motor with electric fan and dual exhaust. 3 Speed manual transmission.
