Cool

Wow! There sure is a lot of interest here. To address a few items mentioned above, I do not believe my mechanicals for the top are malfunctioning. It sucks down to or below the roofline when all the way retracted, with either glass or fiberglass in place. Nor do I believe the seals are compressed. There really isn't much flex in the seal, it's a quite firm rim with catwhisker on it. Maybe I was exagerating a bit with the "stick a pen through it" remark, but certainly a wide gap of light caught my eye during a top end run. It doesn't show a gap at the rear where it is secured down, just along the sides. I've taken several pics of my glass piece, unfortunately none are installed on the car. for those of you curious, or for use in re-manufacturing reference, check this link:
Saratoga Pics
It may take a minute to load, the images are all somewhat high quality and resolution. Save the pics if you want them, that page won't be up forever. If you look close enough, the COD on the box was $219. What a deal, even IF it is noisy!! I won't use it on the track, but it DOES add an inch or two of helmet room!

Looking forward to the days of warm sun shining in..

How did this project end up going?

Is it going still?

Another saratoga story that vanished... Wonder if he came to his senses and realized 100k is too much to invest?
