Hey all.
I just tentatively agreed to buy a factory Midget hardtop, unseen.
Does anyone know how to tell the difference between hardtops? Are they year
specific? I have a '78. If there are different characteristics for early or
later cars, which characteristics do I need to look for. THe woman I spoke to
doesn't know if there is a difference between years.
It has no dents, and original glass. Not sure on the hardware. I assume the
rubbers will need to be replaced. WHat does a factory hardtop look like. She
says it's factory, but I want to be able to make sure. ANyone have pictures?
How difficult and expensive is it to find the hardware, if it's not there?
And what's a fair price for a factory hardtop in the above condition?
It's located in Durham SC. I'm up here in Brooklyn. Is there anyone local
that can take a look at it? She won't have it for another week or so. Someone
bought it from her, thinking that it would fit a B. He's returning it one day
next week.
And Susie's doing OK, for all that want to know. But she definitely requires
too much time. Means less time on my LBC.
