rag top xj

i cant help but keep looking at the rag top xj they did in the last edition of jp magazine
ive seen it mensioned a few times before, but has anyone heer done it?
i know i would have to do a cage, bolt in most likley seeing as how i have no experience what so ever w/ welding, any recomendations?
im coming up on my highschool graduation soon, and with the $$ im gonna get from that + my dad said to pick a (resonable) mod for the xj as a gift, its do-able
i know there are alota mods out there that i could use this monney for, but being able to put the top back on a beautiful day just like me and my dad do with our rubi would be nice
any input is greatly apreciated

i did one in a toyota pickup that thing leaked every time it rained but that was 15 years ago I hope they have changed the design since then.

That's Tony's Jeep. His user name is tcm glx.

There are more pics of his Jeep in the SoCal forum.
