Cary,
Bother away, it is how the rest of us learn. While I havent tried this
my idea was to use some of the 3M black adhesive and a suitably sized
patch of vinyl on the inside of the top, leaving the outside still
smooth but sealed. Others must have been there and done that.
Cheers,
Aaron

Subject: Couple More Questions
Alright, so I am stripping the body of my 76 in preparation for a
fresh coat of paint it will be receiving next week. I am trying to
figure out how in the heck to remove the antenna. The antenna is
located on the driver's side fender about 6 inces in front of the door.
I can't seem to find a way to acess it from underneath. Do I have to
remove the front fender to remove the antenna??
Also, There are a couple of rips in my top (about 1" in length) that I
would like to patch rather than replace the whole top. Does anyone make
any patch kits that will blend in with the grain and not look
horrible??
Thanks to everyone for the help. I am almost done with the project and
I couldn't have done it without the help of everyone on the board.
Especially: Vance Navarette, Bob Lang, Stan Foster, Todd Bermudez, and
Dick Taylor. I think these guys have answered just about every question
I have asked. Once again thank you, and hopefully I'll be done
bothering you soon!
