Pilkington Saratoga top fail
I have an 86 944T & signed up with Curt at Pilkington Classics for one of their 1st new Saratoga Tops.
After years of delays & conversations, I finally had one shipped 2/2020. Not only was it visibly inferior, it
didn't fit. When I spoke to Curt & explained the design flaws & how it was designed not to fit I asked
how did they ever get one to fit? He actually admitted that they didn't have access to any 944 so
they just followed some old drawings. He refunded my money & paid to have it shipped back. I
asked him to please contact me if they ever resolved the flaws. No word yet 3-1/2 years later.

I worked directly with Pilkington to make new hardware and resolve the fitment issues. All of the issues have been resolved. I am a direct distributor for them and if you would like more information the please send me a message.
