Jeremy964,

thanks, I've always like the look of your cab. As a matter a fact, after seeing yours it gave me the idea of getting my rims polished from Al Reed.

Question, it looks like you have a dual exhaust on your car, if so what is the exhaust system you are using?

Thanks fitz

Thanks for the folding tip makes it a lot cleaner.
I've been driving mine for around 2 years now keep having thoughts about a coupe but the odd sunny evening makes the memorys of frosty/icy mornings fade away.

Much trouble to install?

[Brorag]

haven't installed yet--shouldn't be too bad. Just finished replacing both axles--not as bad as the thread comments suggested.

will someone be so kind and post a pic of how the bar is suppose to be? It seem that most of our bars are foded the wrong way. Wonder why? My is powered. Does it make a difference? Thanks. Jeff

Man, there are so many turbo cabs out there.

[PRE-H20]

hey whats wrong with the 15's? i have them too!

[BlkBird]

First off, that little bar is supposed to fold the fabric of the cab top away from the big "spikes" that appear from the cab frame as the top comes down. Ever notice how most cabs seem to have 1/2" cuts in the fabric right behind the door? That's the evil spike.

Replace the elastic strap attached to the bar and it will pull the bar into place automatically, keeping your cab top intact by folding it as the top comes down.

Secondly, cabs are awesome. Folks that say they aren't as good as a coupe on the track may be right. But I'll bet most folks aren't that good a driver to push a P-car beyond cab limits, but within coupe limits.

And they have never gone for a drive in the mountains with the top down on a crisp autumn day!

Does anybody have part no. for that elastic tab that attach to the bar?
my is all warn out.
:cheers:
Cab are great!
