Hello Art,
I put a new canvas top on my 73 Stag about a month ago. Not a job for the
timid.
Very time consuming. With the sanding and repainting of the top frame,
and fitting the canvas top and all seals I have about 15 hours into the
project. It looks terrific. I don't know if my top is a Caribou as I
bought it from someone with a bunch of extra parts
I have fitted several TR6 tops and the top on my Herald and the Stag was
much more work than the TR6, but all in all, if you have some experience
and a lot of patience, you should be able to get a nice result.
(BTW, Art, I somehow lost the email you sent me about the A/C. If you can
send it again, I'll be happy to reply.)
