Default 2nd Request CONVERTIBLE TOP FRAME RESTORE

I Am Looking For Info Regarding A Good Convertible Frame Restorer In The Southeast. Can Anyone Help? I had a new Al knoch top installed by a service in our area that specializes in installing vert tops. The problem is that the top does not snug up at the top of the windshield. I sent some pics to Coffman corvette in ohio and they say that they can repair it, but if possible, would like to find someone in TN,GA,Al or NC.

Thanks,
Chub

You need to put your subject in the title. I would help if I could, but I live in the Southwest.

There's an outfit that always shows up at the NCRS Winter Regionals in Orlando with new and/or refurb'd vert frames. Their name and info escapes me at the moment, but later today when I get free time I'll try to dig out my programs from some of those events (in boxes in garage) and get the info.

I'm thinking they're in Holopaw, Fla which is midway between Orlando and Melbourne.

Thanks 7,
I hate for you to go to all of that trouble. Maybe someone will know of a vendor or.. in the tn ga or al area. I appreciate the response and the offer.

I ama having a new frame and soft top put on my 59 next week here in Louisiana. I was going to Knoxville and have Al Knoc put it on, but it was just to far to drive. If you live close to Knoxville, call Dale with Al Knoc and see if he can fit you in for an appointment. He will be there Oct. 18-21.
