2 hardtops I need to ID

I have come across two hardtops which I need help in identifying to which vehicle can use them. One is a Snugtop and the other a Coachman.

Lest start with the Snugtop: I called Snug top and asked them about it even supplying the serial number which I obtained from the top itself but no bananas. They threw all the old records away, I guess. No one could give me any info on it. Here is what it looks like.

********* I cannot load the pictures from my computer & I do not have a webpage!! Wht do I do?????? *****

As you can see it is in very good condition with minor flaws like a little white overspray and one of the mounting hardware is missing on the passenger side. This can be duplicated very easily by duplicating the one on the drivers’ side. The window is in great shape and so it the rubber seal, which from what I can gather is very hard to get. I believe this top can fit MGs.

The second one is a Coachman: I am at a lost here. I believe I saw one like it in a picture of an Austin Healey or maybe an Alpha Romeo. Here is what it looks like.

As you can see it also looks in great shape but with some flaws like the rubber seal is not all there and the hardware to mount is rusted and hard to work. The suicide port windows are actually Plexiglas and one is cracked but all there.

That is what I have and would love to have any comments on vehicles which could use them and more or less what a fair market value I could put on them for they are up for sale.

Thanks
 
Hi Victor,
Are you using "File Manager" just under the post box? You can only upload one picture per post and there is a size limit of 100K. So if your photos are bigger, they won't work. An alternative would be to open a free account at a place like Photobucket and link your photos from there. Lastly, you might want to post this inquiry to the proper forum (MG?) to get the most exposure from people familiar with those hardtops. Welcome aboard!
