I always liked this style, Factory top" was stylish for it's time. I always wondered if Kaiser- Willys manufactured this top in house, or just had a business agreement with another Company to do so. Would anybody out there know the facts? I had 2 vehicles with this style top, way ahead of it's time with the fiberglass roof panel, (light weight) made up for the clumsy heavy weight of the doors and rear hatch. To me, it almost seemed that the metal parts of the top were designed as an after thought to fit a very well designed fiberglass roof panel. Does anybody know who manufactured the fiberglass roof panel and the story behind it? I'm pretty sure it wasn't Kaiser Willys.

Mike, According to Derek Redmond, Jim Allen believed the early CJ-5 tops were made by Koenig, though there were no identifying marks on the tops to confirm this. http://www.cj3b.info/Hardtops/DeliveryHardtops.html - Dave
