Soft Top Questions
Time for a soft top re-do:
1. Is there a source for miscellaneous soft top frame parts/
2. Has anyone tried adding liners for insulation similar to C5 and C6?
3. Any tips?
Thanks mucho.

Most of the aftermarket providers carry some parts for the folding top frame, but the inventory is not extensive. You are not likely to find everything you could be looking for.
Good luck.

Paragon sells a frame rebuild kit. It has new washers, screws, rivets (Rivet tool sold separately). Most of the major vendors sell individual bows, and your choice of rubber, or original style tack strips. I have found good used bows and rebuildable folding irons on ebay for fair prices. If you have a functional top now, you would probably need at most a new header bow, tack strips, and the Paragon rebuild kit. While all is apart, have the pieces media blasted and powder coated.

Hi fh,
You might want to contact Sully's Tops. They restore top-frames, and sell top-frame parts, too. 559-291-8677 or 800-451-3998.
They usually have an ad in the NCRS DRIVELINE.
Regards,
Alan
