BRAND NEW convertible cabrio tops installed

[vlad]

hey vlad, just got back in the country last night. i'll do it this week!
any chance you have a decent m20 laying around? sold my vert, and i'm looking at another one this weekend.. needs a motor...

I have 2 M20s in great shape ! :up:

$800 is a really good price. Here in Seattle most shops charge $800 just to do a window. Usually the fabric is $500-$800 alone.

i know it is! lol i can't believe that i haven't had more interest out of the tri-state area!
its good quality fabric too! i found the manufacturere of the tops, where i buy direct..

[fuzzysux]

Aaahh, well placed priorities! good luck!

The top is leaking a little, I think it's because it wasn't installed correctly.
When I close the passenger side door the top gets stuck to the window. Is there an easy way to adjust this?

[fuzzysux]

hi - what part of your top gets stuck in the door - the frame, the cloth? this makes a big difference...
if the cloth - then the top is not fitting correctly to the frame -
if the frame 0r the seals on the frame, i would suggest taking the section off of the frame (drill out rivets - clean everything - perhaps get the new seal - and reinstall)
this can be done on most sections of the frame without removing or even really touching the soft cloth top.

ALSO - bump for drop top season!

i have added a few services today - including:
brakes
bearings
control arm bushings

might as well get these maintenance items taken care of while i would already have your car

[SynSyx]

dropped my vert off today, really looking forward to the final product!

Wished you lived closer dude. Looks good

What a great deal.
How much to replace straps?

[fuzzysux]

yeah - oregon is a bit of a stretch!
straps can not be replaced without replacing the top.
it may be POSSIBLE to - but there is too much risk of damaging the cloth depending on the age of the top.
to replace straps IN ADDITION to replacing the top, it adds $250 to the job

[fuzzysux]

ok guys, i've been coming across more and more tops with very rusted hardware (under your seals) - so i am now replacing all of this hardware with stainless steel scrwes when i do the tops. this is the type of stuff that you will probably never see again, but you can be assured that these are the type of steps that i take - working on anyone's cars as if it was my own..
oh yeah - and this is still included in my flat pricing.
