Convertible Top Help

When I got my car (65 Sprite) it came with a new top. Just the top, no fasteners, retainers, header rail or seal, etc. Does anyone have a picture of their top with everything installed? I have a pretty good idea where everything goes but a picture would be very helpful for confirmation.

Thanks
Jeff
 
I have an old one that you can borrow and copy if you want- it is also from a '65

Bill,
Wow, that is a really generous offer. Thank you. I work in Renton at the Boeing plant Monday thru Thursday. Let me know when you are available and we can meet up. Would it be OK if I kept the top for a week or so, I still have to order all the parts to get it installed?

Jeff
 
Sure
Just tell me where you work in the plant and I can give it to you (are you on 1st shift? I take it that you are on 4-10s?)

Bill,
Yes, I'm on 4-10's. I work in the flight deck engineering group. West tower of the 4-81 building, second floor near column H8. I can also come to you if it would be easier. Thanks again for this, it will make this so much easier.

I'm in the 4-21 (Tool Design Engr)- I'll stop by on Monday. You are close to Mike Burkhart- he has a Bugeye
 
Small world! I work in the 4-81/82 buildings, Sun night through Thursday night (night crawler)tearing down and then resetting up the production line!
 
Hmmmmm. Must be something about airplanes and spridget addiction.


Kurt.
 
Bill,
Just re-read this post. I fat fingered the column number where I sit. I am at column A8 not H8. Hope you see this in time
