I'm also in the MPLS area. I'm currently in the middle of a frame-off restoration, hope to have it completed by next summer.

Alexandria, Mn. here. West Central part.
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming
WOW--What a Ride!

Anyone in the Cedar Rapids area or eastern Iowa, with a convertible? I got my windshield headers rechromed, put on new w/s, and did some rust mitigation to the top front bow. The passenger side of the top doesn't sit right, and I want to look at one that's correct to see where mine's messed up.
Thanks!

I'm not close, but I can take some pics. My weatherstripping looks original. You take pics of what you want from what angle and Ill duplicate it on my car.

As you can see, there are things that don't seem to fit right. This car is a work in progress...dealing with maintenance and other issues that have been put off for 20+ years.

Rus, those are super helpful! It's pretty clear to me that my windshield headers are distorted, so that's part of the problem at least. I have a half inch gap above the rearview mirror boot, so that's obviously wrong. One other question - when you fold your visors out to the side, are they parallel to the top frame? I just discovered mine go uphill about 20°, so the ends hit the inside of the top.
Thanks!!!
