The list will correct me, but AFAIK MKII tops are shorter than the MKIII tops.
THe cutoff year should be '66. All tops for cars from '61 up to and including
'66 should be interchangable. Everything from '67 onwards should be
interchangable.
I'm fuzzy on the '61 part, though. I'm not sure if Bugeye tops fit the early
Midgets.

Hi all,
I think I've settled on a Midget - the one I originally came across in AL.
It's not the closest one I found, but meets my goals nicely and fits the
budget very comfortably. Anyway I'm going to be over halfway there in a
couple of weeks anyway, so...
But another question. In my searches I have also come across a hardtop
pretty cheap. I don't know the condition of it yet - just found it in an
online classified. The thing is, it's for a Mk II Midget and I'm getting a
Mk III. Is it possible to adapt it for the Mk III? I'd rather make changes
to the top than the car. But the fewer the changes, the better. I'd like to
have a hardtop for winter, since I don't have a garage and would like to be
able to use it as much as possible.
Thanks!
Eddie
