My 67' I just picked up its a soft top model, I need to have a soft top made if anybody has any connections

Hey Sierra Patrol,
I'm in between Bishop and Mammoth Lakes. You may be the closest Patrol to me.
Welcome to you and your helper. That L60 looks like it was kept inside most of its days. zthe door rubber still there the steering wheel unfaded, tranny vinyl, original pedal pads still looking good (I'll bet this puppy have less than 70,000 miles on it.), original shifter boots, vent hoses....point is this is a good one.
I hope it runs well now as a runner is always funner. I think I just made that up.
Good luck with the soft top. There should be plenty of talent for this in Reno and of course Vegas.

Thanks it was bought in southern CA and brought right up to NV, I'm the second owner now. It has 72,000 miles but I guess 75% of that was towing, the old guy just used it as a hunting rig, no rust and runs great!....would like to get a soft top ASAP!!

we should meet up this spring in the Bodie CA area for a camp out!

Hey, congratulations on taking the plunge! That is a very nice rig, you're son is going to have some of the best time in it. You will to! Yeah, soft top canvas is possible. The exterior paint sure shined up nice. The interior is the original color, used to be the color on the exterior at one time. It looks to be very nicely kept, many of the hard to find original parts are still there: all 4 glass tail light and turn signal lenses, original vinyl shifter boots, the vinyl floor mats and transmission cover, the glass dash light lens, etc, etc. Very nice. You should be able to get a lot of use out of that just the way it is right now.

Bodie!!!??? I think that has been mentioned before! I smell a Patrol meet in the works...

Do the front marker lights come on when headlights are on? Mine only come on with first click of light switch then the turn off when lights come on.

That is how they are designed to work. They are functioning normally.

I....we would love to see a write up on that soft top if you go forth with it. This would make a very nice informational which I do not think has been done. Not making it necessarily but sourcing, maybe some photos of the process, bits and pieces you had to get or make to make it happen. Sorry, that just a wish list of mine I guess.
There has been chatter about a meet for years and River is right...the time is soon....I say Mid-June...? Brake loose the hounds Miksum

Dynamo Pond and camping at Green Creek Rd., Dog Town kind of near Bodie.

Yes I will be taking photos as I recondition the Patrol. I don't think I will do a frame off restoration, due to its real good shape and I don't want to be afraid of using it if its to nice.

Took it out for a morning drive in the dusting of snow we had, here a couple crappy cell phone photos.
