That fellow doing your top has been at the various shows so long that I can remember when neither He or I had gray hair. He certainly knows what he's doing.

Not a bad idea to get it done there. A couple of times guys in our caravan to Corvettes at Carlisle have had tops replaced by Al Knoch there. It makes for one helluva hot ride home since you can't put the top down for a couple of days. Al Knoch is the best in the business from what I hear. Nice looking car also, so I agree, we need to see more pics.
