Found another hardtop for $400.00. Owner says he'll guaranty there is no
rust. Top needs stainless trim but mine has the trim in good condition. Can
anyone do better? He also has a brake servo from an Alpine for $50.00 but no
guarantees. Does anyone know what type of servo will work on my Mk IA? Did
the Alpine use the same servo as the Tiger? Shipping will run about $100.00
for both.
