changing vert top
I did a search and couldnt find anything on the subject of replacing my vert fabric top. Maybe some one can point me in the direction of a prior post. I dont even know if its something that most owners would try. I changed my engine and that wasnt such a big deal but Im not sure what is involved in thw cloth swap. Anybody care to chime in? thanks, Norm

Of all the DIY project advice here including replacing the clutch, heads, headers and other major mechanic feats you will not find people recommending you do your own top. You will find people strongly recommending you take it to an expert.
I had mine replaced mine with a Robbins Top (the best) and found a recommended installer from their website. It turned out perfect and is much higher quality than the original.
