Well I have been hinting for a few day about a new project. It is how signed sealed "sort of" and delivered.

For those who have been around awhile I just purchased a 1984 cab from user "kurt b". Kurt was kind of getting out from working on his car about the time I started posting. If it helps as a reminder this car has rennlights first fiberglass top for cabs.

I plan to put my current 85 cab back to stock and sell it to finance the new project. The new car is being aimed at a DE open track fun car and hopefully eventually a competitive SCCA XP autocross beast. But first things first.

The first project at hand will be redesigning the attachment of the fiberglass top. Not going to get into how it was done only how to proceed. I will post some pictures after I get the top removed from the car. I am not sure if rennlight still produces these or not. I haven't seen much about them other than the original posts whick really didn't show a totally completed installation. Items I know still need addressed are an affordable way to attach the front using hooks. The factory latches are $375.00 each, a good seal to use between the top and the body, and a good seal for the rear of the window to the "B" pillar. It is also missing the front seal but I assume a factory replacement seal will work in this area. Perhaps not as it has been cut and removed. I also need to get a good seal on the rear window but the car will generally not see rain except at a race.

If anyone else has one of these tops please chime in as to how you completed yours.
