Default Convertible Top Help Needed

I would like a recommendation for someone located in NJ (or close to it) that can repair or replace the convertible on my 67 Corvette. The previous owner had a new top put on recently, but it does not fit corectly around the windows and does not sit correctly on the car and does not sit right when folded up in the trunk.

I'm not just looking for anybody who does convertible tops. I want a highly recommended person who people on this Forum have used and loved his/her work.

Thank you,

P.S. If it needs a new top, what top do you recommend? Al Knoch? Other Brands? Custom top made by the Convertible top installer?

You may want to try Contes Corvettes in Vineland. My brother used them for a variety of work including a top and was happy with them.
