1969 Mod Top Barracuda Hardtop on Hemmings Auctions
I started helping doing tops at a Chevy store in '68. Moved to Dodge City later and still did a couple.
I worked at the Plymouth dealer in Waukesha in '71/'72 and we cranked out several per month. Doing them old school...bulk vinyl, hand made seams glued and folded with a hot iron.
A guy named Nino Cuzmano was the expert. I was a smart *** kid that gave him a lot of crap but he put up with me and I learned to respect him and his work. He told me he worked for the Chicago Outfit in his younger years and was a soldier who collected gambling debts. With a name like that who's to argue?
