ICON FJ43 Hardtop?

[RR1]

I swore I saw a picture of a Slate(Blue) ICON FJ43 with a hardtop with top painted (powdered coated?) white, I know it isn't an option.

Just so I know I am not crazy, has anyone seen the picture of it, or know of it?

Like this but with a hardtop.

The top looked like this. On another thread RMP&O suggested it is a fiberglass top from Columbia.

All real 40 hard tops have fiberglass caps. You can buy complete hard tops on Mud, craigslist, ebay, etc. and caps from Spector and etc.

Oh I was wondering why ICON doesn't offer a hard top for their FJ43 model, but I could swore I have seen one.

Looking on the Aqualu site, the manufacture of their bodies. Not seeing tops.

I'd just give 'em a call & ask.

Real friendly folks who are happy to talk about their products.

Call Todd at Aqualu/Hardbodies. He can probably whip up a top. 1-888-765-6714 I am not sure if he has made any before, but I know firsthand he has the skills! Below is his 45 project... And some 40 and 43 tubs too!

The bigger question is: Would AT be willing to make a FJ43 habitat? :coffeedrink:

I think an modern style Dormobile would fit more along the lines of the classic Land Cruiser.

Either would be fine with me... time to buy that lottery ticket.:snorkel:

Thanks, not really what I am looking for.

Looking for a picture of a ICON FJ43 with a hardtop, I have seen it somewhere...can't find it now. The color is slate with a white top.

Like this FJ40, but a FJ43, top is white instead of natural carbon fiber.

My bad. I'm a big time picture geek, and all I can say is I've never seen one, but with all the goodies TLC has I wouldn't doubt if they've kicked one out.

No worries, thanks anyways.

FWIW - Spoke with Jonathan Ward this morning,... & asked if they'd ever done an FJ43 ICON w/ a hardtop - Answer was no.

Awesome Thanks for asking, now I know.

Maybe the one I saw was a TLC Stage Four restoration, it was a FJ40 which they turned into a FJ43. Which is "almost" their ICON Stage.

Only pictures I can find are, of course are topless. It does have full hard doors, making me think it is this one.
