My soft top is also on it's way out and needs to be replaced. I'd be down to drive up there to get it done.

My top just split this winter and that is on my list for this year. I have just been leaving it in the garage, but I need to get the top done. I reside in Durham.

For a replacement would you go vinyl or cloth?

I think I had read a bunch of times just to get a robbins top.

Robbins cloth. You can't go wrong with that.

PLEASE PM ME on how serious you are and what other work you would be interested in doing.
Just tell me If you are doing the work yourself or if you would prefer to have someone else to do it for you.

Weekend of the 28-29th? Would this work for anyone?

Soft Tops? 04ssonbl or
gephelps. Still have interest?

GUTI007 - who did yours and ofsalesmen? Same place/person?

I am building a shed just about by myself so depending on my progress I might be asking for some manual labor to move product or if handy yourself do a little building. Focus would be S2000's.

Toyo did both tops on the same day in Raleigh.

I like the 28th or 29th. Better chance for better weather.

Though I probably wont have any tech things to do I can assist others and make a lunch run to Merritt's because we all need BLT's with 1/2 pound of bacon.

Are you offering up garage space, Pinky?

Maybe......My shed is taking front stage right now and I still haven't gotten my S out of the garage!! I am going to try and re-paint the rear quarter this weekend. If goes well will prep and paint hopefully most/all of the front bumper just to get it flat. This way I can just head straight to wrapping it after shed is done. Shed can't take ALL SUMMER so getting it banged out in a few weekends is ideal. Going to try and hire some help too.

Would probably be better if weather wasn't good because I have a 3 car garage and could get 2 cars in to work on at same time. Not sure where I would put everything but I could manage.
