Tractor canopies

Care to explain what you are getting at? A search on 'canopies' turns up "0" found (for me).
Thanks.

I found it. Thanks for the heads up, but possibly "Bernie" is busy making canopies, due to the interest created. I ordered a CrocTop for my JD gator, and it took longer than I expected too. But when you have a good product, you run the risk of being noticed, and being in high demand. Such terrible luck to have, but then bad luck is better than no luck at all.

Re: Another low cost alternative

I wouldn't buy Chinese, because they shoot down our planes. And true, some things Chinese can't be avoided easily. Something like this can. And I didn't mean to offend you by this note.

I can agree with what you have said but, it seems that he would at least answer my emails instead of just ignoring me..
After all.... I paid him for the canoy August 6, 2001..

I guess we will wait and see ???

Thanks for your response,

Bill, for your info, I bought a very nice canopy from Firebird fiberglass (search on that name to locate the website) for my 4100 Deere. Since they are manufactured in Arizona, I traveled (200 miles) to the factory to pick one up. I found one with a slight paint blemish for 40% off. Since, I've been to the factory, I can vouch that they are a legitimate company. Anyone who is looking should check out their website.

What's the going price for the Firebird canopies. The Web site doesn't speak to any pricing.

Seems to me I paid around $500,I will have to look to make sure,I also ordered an extra piece that goes inside the canopy(ceiling?part of the price I paid) that has a cutout for a radio and has a cigarette lighter,which would be good for electrical things etc.
