Here are some more examples of my work. The current design uses Made in USA Berry Act compliant milspec PVC vinyl or civilian high-quality sailcloth, just like Hummer H1s used. The frame arrives ready to assemble. You only need a screwdriver. The cover attaches with velcro.

Mil-Spec PVC is best if you plan to paint the material. It takes paint very well. Plastic paints or the Rapco CARC 383 substitute that many use to repaint or touch up our trucks works well too. I have painted some samples with Rapco 383 and it looks good. That said, the most durable material is...

Production on soft slant back kits is resumed, albeit slowly. I am working on OD Green and Desert Tan PVC vinyl kits now. I am also getting set up for sailcloth (civilian convertible top material, like Blue Ox Tops uses and from the same vendor he uses). Message me for pricing. Bulldogger

PM replied to oddshot. Anyone looking for this PVC will find it hard to come by. I will sell by the yard to those interested. OD green and desert tan available. If enough people want black PVC I might order a roll. These are Made In America Berry Act compliant and the current military color...

I have finished sewing my first MilSpec PVC soft slant back. It looks great! (OK, I am biased.) I will begin offering these kits for sale soon. Please feel free to reach out to me. I am working in cooperation with William Welch of Blue Ox Tops on Facebook. WIlliam was kind enough to share his...

Back to the top! It’s taken a while but I am starting to sew again. I’ve acquired a few hundred yards of genuine milspec vinyl so I can better match OEM parts. Color match is a crap shoot for many reasons, but at least this material is waterproof. I do not have a firm start date for when I will...

Thanks Action. The use of strapping is intriguing, as I am not happy with all the welding I have to do for my current design for sure. I'm not sure shipping is truly eased if I copy the H1 design, or come close, as today my tubing all lies flat and gets rolled up in the cover to ship. It is...

Mikemike, I have moved twice since my last productions, but am finally catching up and mostly unpacked and set up. I could not find a good manufacturer to sell my designs to, all turned me down. Now that I am caught up, and 'baby' always needs parts money, I plan to resume making kits this...

Any shop used to welding light steel and sewing canvas is capable of making these, but I figure there would be more interest from an entity that is already affiliated with our interest sector. I don't want to just order them made and resell them or have to work to convince a shop to try it out...

Got a firm No from Breton last week about taking over my design. Am not able to ID any others. If anyone knows of another MilSpec canvas company, I'm all ears. Not sure if or when I will resume production otherwise. Bulldogger

I'm still writing potential companies to consider taking over soft slant back production but no replies so far. If there is an interested Member I'm happy to discuss as well. Last three production kits are still available in Classifieds. BDGR

In follow up to the previous post, if anyone has a good contact at Breton, or another military textile product supplier, I welcome it. I'd like to pass this design on to a more dedicated supplier, if I can't continue production on my own. Likewise if there is a Member here that has welding and...

I've posted my three remaining soft slant back kits in the Classifieds for anyone who might be interested in one. At this time I do not have a planned resume date for when, or if, I will be making them again. Sales are slight, and it gets tedious after a while. I could sell them on eBay, but...

Tan 1000D Cordura, Green 1000D Cordura and OD Green Ballistic Nylon (1500D) in stock. See the classifieds https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/soft-slant-back-kits-for-hmmwv-m998-are-back.192510/ Bulldogger

Some more in stock and more on the way. I will be pausing production due to moving home and shop end of December. If you're on the fence about buying, I am not sure when or if I will be able to restart production in 2020, no time like the present... Bulldogger

Still in business. PM sent. Bulldogger

A tan solid center panel soft slant back is completed sewing. Frame will be made this week. Green next. Will post pics of Tan once it's draped over a frame. Available in the site Classifieds. Bulldogger

I have reopened for business, making soft slant back kits. Combatmp29r is first in line for a basic green ssetup. I plan to start a few tan ones as well, in spare moments. Inquiries are welcome. I plan on having no more than 3 orders in at once (nice but unlikely problem to have, turning...

I am about dug out from school and life issues. I am reaching out to those who have expressed interest with options to sign on before I post a general call for orders. Bulldogger

combatmp, thanks for asking. I made a slant back for slmanella, but it took a while. I'm in school now and between that and work I'm not able to accept orders. School ends, pass or fail, in 4 weeks and then I plan to hit it hard. I have tubing for 4 frames cut, needing welding of fittings...
