I had to have a professional do the convertible top, I could not understand the instructions that came with the parts for the new top. The cars were, '66 Gold coupe, '66 Bronze coupe, '64 1/2 Blue conv., '67 Red Coupe, '69 Coupe, '66 Blue Coupe, and finally a '66 Fastback that I am currently working on.
That 64 1/2 convertable probably brought big bucks!
