I'd part with mine, but you wouldn't want it. :-)

The zipper is broken. I took it to a good shoe repair shop (the one that 
handled all repairs for the Frozen Four Hockey teams). But he said that 
he wouldn't have the right kind of zipper. I've called a couple of Auto 
Upholstery shops, and got site unseen phone estimates of $65 to $85 just 
for the big zipper, and if I'm going to do one, I may as well do all three.

I saw a tonneau on Ebay, last week go for $110.

I'm still thinking of repairing. I might try my hand at sewing, if I can 
find a zipper. And get a lesson or two on a sewing machine.
