Small parking lots suck, especially when I hold my coffee in one hand. Never thought I had girly hands, but maybe ?

Gentlemen with no PS, did anyone notice or chose tire size for easier steering? If you did, share the size, i drove V8 B body with manual steering and I swear it was easier to turn on low speeds than my dart /6!

I don’t know if this help

I’ll try to take some pictures, I have no idea if I did it right, but I copied what I had before

Well liner was installed first and glass and top right on top of it. There was another channel under the chrome trim, it has screws that holds the top in place and kinda keeps hr trim from collapsing if you over tighten it. Seems to me that chrome trim is mainly to cover other trim and to add...

“How did you determined the amount of pull you used when cinching down the area of the qtr glass to the top deck area? And was the top warmed up sun wise? Just curious.... Top header loose when stretching?“ I started by measuring old top and making marks with a blue tape where it sat and how...

sure, I can get you coffee , there’s few kinds, do you remember where you bought it? Was it grocery store or ABC store?

I’ll look into that, but I don’t think so, old top didn’t have wrinkles like that, but same time it was different brand And I never removed or readjusted frame. Seemed a little thinner. Another thing I learned that off white or white top is very unforgiving, every little scratch shows and...

Bummer..

Did anyone tried to put later years (68-69) A body bumpers on 63-64? I see newer ones on sale once in awhile and wondered if they worked on early body

Tried it on emblems, I was worried that might be too harsh, but then decided it can’t be worse than it is now

I believe this is the one

Did anyone tried ultrasonic cleaning for chrome or stainless trims and emblelms? I’m thinking of buying one for carb cleaning, but don’t want to ruin other stuff. They pretty cheap on Amazon, trims and emblems aren’t

I appreciate you checking

Does it work for’64?

I feel better, thank you, maybe I was overthinking

I tried steaming and I left it in the sun for now. Maybe I will get used to it or it will even out a little. I really appreciate great input and support, I think steamer really helps vinyl to loosen up and stretch. I’ll try few times and see how it looks. Jokes aside, I want top up on those hot...

I saw that, but that’s my last resort. Almost $200 bucks for two small pieces is a lot for me

I think you guys are too kind, I’ll try steamer, if not, heat gun. I’m kinda scared of heat gun, don’t want to burn it

Looking for 1964 dart convertible molding trims like this one, left and right

I tackled my top by myself, getting all kind of wrinkle.. at the moment left it outside to see if it evens out a little is the sun. Kinda mad at myself, but I don’t know any shops that can do it here and let me tell you, if I had friends I would definitely asked for help… not happy ..

That’s why I redid my whole interior in red

I got my top from eBay looks like size is perfect, too bad I’m a terrible installer, work in progress but I think i ruined it

I had to change everything, did foam upfront and cotton/foam in the back. It was not hard at all

It was directly from legendary, they had a Christmas sale and that’s why I bought it, but Covid shut them down ( they had 2 months before Covid hit, but didn’t do it) so instead of 4-6 weeks it took nearly 4 months to produce it. I was really not impressed with my salesman. Actually rear seats...

Do they come with metal piece like you have in the picture?

I put four coats or so, I understand that they were painted originally, probably better paint with lead and asbestos with uranium hardener and that’s why it lasted this long. I figured I’ll do that and see how long it will last. If it will last 2 years with 4 coats, I’ll do 12 coats next time...

One thing I did wrong is didn’t get enough hog rings. I asked sales guy what is average you need and ordered more, but should of double what he said

I didn’t, but weather is warm here, probably helps. There were some areas that I had to massage it and muscle in, but I think overall it’s a very high quality skins ( not that I installed any others ) one thing that was very helpful, was legendary install videos on utube. I watched them few...

Thank you gentlemen!
