RE: [Chrysler300] Convertible Tops

["NANCY TERRY" <nterry2@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Pete,
I am going to make a suggestion and will be waiting to see if I get a lot of 
objections to this.  I suggest that you try very hard to see if, in your 
locale, you can find anyone who will custom make and install a top for you.  
>From my first convertible in 1954 to the present, I have been very 
particular about how a top fits--especially on the sides where they come 
down over the frame and where they are in relation to the top of the 
windows.  I find that rarely do the tops come down far enough over the frame 
to keep the frame from showing.  And that's plain ugly.  No insult intended, 
but I have seen some club cars with that exact problem.  Have been told that 
installers can adjust for that with prestitched tops, but if that's true, 
why do I see the majority of tops not covering the frame perfectly?  I 
haven't done a top yet here in San Antonio but think I have already located 
a shop that will do it.  In my opinion, it'd be worth it if you could locate 
someone.  Possibly ask to see a car with top he's done.
