O.K. so I've come to the conclusion that my roof is too far gone to fix, so, I'm selling my oval and gonna buy a Honda civic and start building imports. NOT! But , what started as a simple ragtop graft has turned into alot more work. :roll: So, when in doubt, cut it out!

Got it mostly tacked up today, will finish tomorrow. Not easy, roofs are tough, it will be worth it when the rags in and I'm cruisin' on a nice sunny day though.

Beautiful! :thumbs:
