Hi Joe - Where is the Amco top available from? I have the VB, Moss, and TRF catalogs, and none of them list Amco. I also need a top and have been putting it off. I figure I've got three or four month

Don't know anything about the Caribou, but the Robbins I have is Vinyl and so is the Amco. That is what is original for the car, but if you want canvas or some other fabric, I'm sure they are availab

I got mine from them as well & have been very happy with it. I have installed a number of convertible tops on various LBC's and this one had the nicest fit & required little tweaking. Hope this helps
