Does anyone know where this roll bar came from?

I found a photo online from a bronco build that a radio station did as a giveaway. The roll cage pictured does not seem to be the one they started out with in the build. I called the company and they didn't know where they got it. I'm guessing it might be custom but I really like how high up the the bars in the back meet the top of the middle loop. The one selling on wild horses and bronco graveyard sits lower. Here's a pic. Im also wondering if this would interfere with a soft top and if I can continue the bar to the windshield.

Looks custom.
For a real roll bar that large rise on the down bars (top of the cage to the tailgate) are a weak point and would allow the cage to fold back. Being a straight bar would be more structural. But for appearance it does look neat. Although not really effective for rear seat passengers.

First off, I can’t really think of any reason that if you are doing custom bars, you couldn’t continue a rear main bar up to the windshield for a full cage.
But if you look at the picture, that one is already a full cage with front bars with grab handles.

That’s a WFO Concepts build they did for the owner of Carroll Shelby Engine Company. You can see the build here: https://www.wfoconcepts.com/g-23023-bills-early-bronco.html. You can reach out to them to ask. What’s weird is the bronco is actually blue. That pic has been doctored to show red. It was originally taken from a Sotheby’s photo shoot when the bronco was sold later.
