Yes, you did.That looks killer. I put my hardtop back on my '61 about a year and a half ago, and it's been on ever since. I like the look of these early cars better with it on. Great job!

I also love the look of the hardtop. Just sent mine off last week for a restore and I've never had it on since it wasn't in good shape. I know I have a long wait but I hope it will be worth it.

Looks fantastic. Tempted to restore mine but then ever being able to get in the car gracefully would end.

It's just that those stainless side molding hurt more. 
'You're going to love driving with the top on....it's like a whole new car.

I agree - better with the hardtop on . . . .

Oh it is tempting... I think I am going to keep it for a bit longer...I figure since I have it I should hang on to it with the car. Plexi and rubber are shot but rest is pretty good.
