If I was in the market for a tilt, I would be trying to find one to inspect first.

The things I would be looking for, having once owned a SWB series one that had a soft top, are;

The weight of the canvas and the resistance of the material to ripping.
The doping treatment of the canvas against rot and mildew.
Stitching be adequate and strong.
The fit and style of the canopy is precise and true to type.

Hey Dave, not personally but a mate had one done by them a few years back, for a basically new car build custom coil sprung 100" lightweight.

The quality of the hood was excellent from memory... far better than anything else...

( I am trying to think back and I think the first one was made by soemone else and was rubbish so he had another one made, by AWT and it was great.) I cant recall who made the first one though..
