Great advice from someone who knows! ThanksGood to hear the coolant leak was minor and detail work is progressing. We touched briefly on the topic of convertible tops when you stopped by, so you are well aware of the inherent 71 - 73 top fabric rub issue at the corners against the hockey stick chrome trim. Although I'm probably preaching to the choir here, once you install the top frame, this is the ideal time to temporarily install the weatherstripping and align / adjust the window glass with the frame & weather stripping before the fabric gets installed. Also good time to ensure the gap between the frame and the hockey stick / quarter panel is sufficient enough to avoid the fabric bead coming into contact with the metal.
Thanks, means you will have some $$ left in the bank, not a bad thing!Very nice! Mine will never ever reach that level of perfection.
.......I am totally not bashing at all, it looks wonderful - a LOT closer to absolutely correct than mine. But with the picture of the original hood side-by-side with the repaint, it looks like the passenger side radius around the NACA duct insert opening is a tiny bit further toward the rear of the hood than the driver side, and has a tiny bit tighter radius as well.
I'm hoping it's an optical dillusion that I'm seeing because of the "digital picture on the internet effect."
