Soft Top

[KevinM]

I did a search but didn't come up with anything regarding soft tops.

What are people using for tops, side screens and tonneau covers for their cars?

Kevin,
I purchased a Robbins top for mine. It was supplied by Cobra Restorers. I purchased it from another owner, I have not heard good stories about Cobra Restorers. More info on their top is at this link:

I've gone around and around with heaps of on line companies and ones that advertise in magazines trying to get a soft top for HM1081 but no one is willing to say their top will fit a Hurricane. The previous soft top supplier for Hurricanes is apparently no longer making them.  Most told me to bring the car by and they would check it out....including several other Cobra replica companies, one even asked me to send the body to them and they would build one, then ship the body and top back.   It seems the best way is to check with your local vintage car club if one in your area, and see who makes the custom tops for the old 'verts.    As mine is headed overseas, I gave up and instead have ordered a hardtop from Hurricane, currently nearing completion, for 1081.  I took the leap on blind faith having never seen what they are making or an exact price but as soon as I have it in my grimmy little paws, I will post photos.

Can't wait to see those pics, Ken.

Funny you should mention this, Fuzzy.  When I was at the HMS factory in June I did see a hardtop lying right next to your SBC motor.  Both looked very nice!!  Yours should be an interesting build!!

I guess it must still be sitting there as my kit is still in limbo, must still be some issues to figure out.
