    Looks like a late CJ top to me.

    With a peaked roof? No CJ top that I've ever seen has a peak in the roof like that.

    You're right. I couldn't see that on my Iphone....;)

    Could have easily been modified though.

    X2. Not many companies ever made glass tops for CJ5's and none made them with rear slider windows or that particular contour that I am aware of.

    it is not a late cj becase it does not fit my yj




    if it really good job if it is home brew it looks like more than one person got a hold of it the back glass looks like it came from a 1980's aluminum camper shell from a truck there is some aluminum angle that goes around the door that does not fallow the level of fab that was put into the fiber glass work

    the doors look like acme doors with out the bottom glass just like these

    I didn't say late CJ-7. CJ-5's were made until 1983 and are considered late

    Are those rock doors?

    What are rock doors? The red Jeep pictured is John Strenk's Jeep, and that's a standard Acme top and doors on it.

    Do you smell what The Rock's doors are cooking? Seriously, I have no idea what rock doors are, I've never heard that term before. The ad and the pic of John's Jeep above both have the standard Acme doors that came with the tops.

    So there was no definitive answer there about "rock doors" but you're rehashing a term that someone on Craigslist used that has no clue?
    The doors shown were simply the stock Acme doors that came with the top. Kayline made soft top doors with windows down low in the doors like that. They were just for more visibility and not called "rock doors".
