Topless
Now that I got your attention, my -76 Spider needs new top and rear window.
I can tackle most mechanical jobs myself, have a garage and handtools, some
patience, but absolutely no experience on convertibles (I'm coming from
Finland...).
Is there good descriptions or instructions about replacing top in the web
somewhere? Found some but not too great ones with google.
Some of the manufacturers say their product is to be installed by
professional only, is it because job is too much for people to do themselves
or is it because they don't want possible returns caused by poor
installation?
What other parts than top with window and front seal I need to order?
Preferred suppliers? Preferred materials? Color will be black and I suppose
cloth, canvas or stayfast would be choice of materials.
What is the purpose of top cable, currently there is only ends which are
cut only about 4" long behind both side window and hanging free.
Is there local Alfistis who would be willing to give a hand and piece of
advice in replacing top for pizza and cool refreshments?
