Title: CJ7 hardtop glass
Post by: Mike Pavelin on September 06, 2015, 06:56:01 PM

OK, 7 fans, my first question, is the side glass in a 7 hard top flat or curved like on a YJ?

Sorry to disagree but my 1977 one piece hardtop has got curved glass on the sides and a flat rear, all in rubber beads.
I've had the vehicle since about '85 and am sure it's the original top, 'cos it's always looked manky!
The curve is more accentuated at the top and follows the shape of the roof more or less exactly.

My 79 hardtop glass looks flat to me (and to my knowledge has been on since 1980)
