It looks to me that someone used an original top as a pattern to make another one at some time in its life. The side windows with the original frames look original. The windows without the frames are definitely not original. An original Agrijeep top is just canvas (no rubber), but they had 2 long straps sewn into canvas to allow it to be rolled up and held in place. Nice photos though of what an original top looked like. There are 3 different kinds of top configurations for the CJ-2A, with 3 different kinds of door frame configurations. W-O changed the way the door sockets were constructed and the addition of more rods to make the top more sturdy. The difference in the door frame size could be that you were trying to make an early door fit in the later CJ-2A door socket. The early door socket is taller than the later one. Todd Paisley
