Hi D_M,

Thanks for the explanation. That cleared my doubt since long

This thread has been lying dormant for quite some time now. I have not been getting enough time to pay attention to my Jeep. It has been just waiting parked at my home. Finally this week I was able to get a long overdue job done on it. The Willys now has a Canvas Top. Here are a few pictures.
