Hi Roadster

Sorry for not commenting sooner but...well you know...real life comes first sometimes! :-). I ordered the sun-fast cloth roof and tonneau for my B, and after long deliberation I went to a custom car guy and had him fit the roof and tonneau for me. I felt that after the money I had spent a few dollars more wasn't going to break me. If you are still bent on taking on this task perhaps you could find a auto detailer that, for a small fee would lend you his shop, tools, and guidance for a nominal fee. In these tough time these small shop will do just about anything to keep their doors open... Just a thought, good luck!

Cheers...Rita

Thanks for the advice Rita. Talked to a upholstry man and recieved some good tips on the transfer from the old to the new. Next project is the carpeting.

thanks mgb 70
