That is some hopeful news!
I have been pestering Bestop to build a SuperTop for the 80-96. I don't know if you folks have seen their products but they are the nicest built and designed tops made. They have a very sweet kit for the early Broncos. Below is transcript of my communications so far. I bet you guys could write them too.

Also remember to write their retailers as well.
Jed:
There are many many many 1980 to 1996 Broncos that would love a Supertop. Please write me back with why your company won't build a unit like STC did for the Late Bronco so I can tell the forum of hundreds of owners/untapped Bestop customers.
Bestop:
This email was forwarded to me for several reasons. I worked & designed with Kayline/ Specialty Top company for 20 years. I am now employed with Bestop Customer Service Tech department. Personally, I hope to see someone pick up the Bronco, Blazer, Scout & Toyota line in the near future. It's a good sized market. However, you're not going to see Bestop pick up this very missed product line. Bestop is primarily OEM based with specific after market products. Mostly Jeep based. That's not going to change. I just want to say that there are those of us out there that understand your frustration and the need for the product. Keep a look out Tennessee Jed, eventually it will come around again.
Jed:
Thank you for the prompt reply. I guess I was hopeful when I saw the truck SuperTop being built by your company which have no OEM equivalents.
I am now thinking of ordering one of the part number 76315 and making modifications to make it fit a Bronco. Just because the Bestop product is the finest product of this kind made.
You said you worked for Kayline some time ago I had one of their snap style tops when I owned a 1986 Eddie Bauer Bronco. I bought it in 1995 I think and it was a fine product and I thank you for your part in that.
Please keep me on your list of contacts if your company changes its position on the late model Bronco tops.
I describe a good human as one who is bold enough to ask for what they want yet humble enough to accept what they can get, it can't make matters worse.
