Title: Getting the Soft top replaced.
Post by: GeorgeA on November 20, 2016, 10:44:59 PM

Hello there,

My father owns a 1953 CJ3a and has kept it in very good condition to say how old it is. I have noticed recently that the roof/soft top has started the shred a tear a little, and that he could do with a new one. Being as his birthday is coming up in 1 month i thought i might as well treat him to a new roof. Here is where you guys come in. I have been looking online at CJ3 a sites and for sale sites that i will link below. i found XHD Soft Top, Black Denim, Tinted Windows, 97-06 Jeep Wrangler which looks real nice and sharp. But i have no idea if it will fit my farther CJ3a or if i am even looking in the rite place. Sorry about the lack of information everyone i don't know so much about the jeeps. If there is any other information needed just ask and i will do my best to find the answers needed.

Thanks guys

I doubt a Wrangler top will do the trick, but I did find this:    https://www.bestop.com/jeep/1953/m38a1/tigertop/

or this:   https://www.bestop.com/jeep/1953/m38a1/supertop-classic-soft-top/window-color/clear/doors-type/2-pc-fabric-doors/

but I'd call or email them to be sure if it will fit.
