Hi All,After 12+ years, I’m nearing completion of the restoration of my dad’s 64 3000 BJ8. I’ve done most of the work myself (other than paint), and am willing to say it’s turned out to be a very nice restoration. Not concours level, but very nice. One thing I am really struggling with is the installation of the convertible top. The frame is installed, I recovered all of the wood pieces and have reinstalled those. 

The installation of the two straps, as well as the top itself is causing me fits. I’m at the point where I’ve decided I will need some help to get this right. I think it might be best if I have an expert complete the top install. I live in Pepperell Massachusetts. Can anyone recommend an installer in the New England area that has the expertise to get this done?

Thanks,

Dave Masucci in Pepperell, Ma.
