Had one of the original halftops & fastback tops from him on my TJ back in the UK. Thankfully both items I bought 2nd hand, so no direct dealings. Admitably the quality is not the best, but the designs are quite original. Remember he was doing a watertight (well in priniciple) half top when Bestop would not even entertain the idea. The gator top is another good concept of his, but doubt any of the quality issues faced had been addressed. Having dealt with Tim by email several times (to try & become a UK distributor for his tops - his attitude, & total inability to answer the questions posed made me come to my senses. Thankfully before beer tokens were sent. Maybe a bit left field, but this guy has some good ideas, just poor quality & execution, therefore why dont the likes of Bestop hire him as a tops designer, then just improve the quality. Or maybe he can move to China, & manufacture there, the quality would be an improvement !!
