[JAGNUTS] A question about a convertible top for my 1968 MGB

[Len]

Thanks Bob and John.  So I need to venture out to see if i can find new
snaps/snap holders and someone who can sew these on.

Incidently Bob, if you are interested in the tranny I have, let me know what
you want to pay for it (lately, the less parts in my garage the more room
for other things like lumber for my half-finished fence).

Oh and John, I talked to my buddy about the bike and he sounded mildly
interested.  Again, what year is it?  And milage and anything thing else I
can pass along to him.
