Welp, was sweatin bullets on repairing the soft top. Someone had used a combination of kevlar and fiberglass resins to build it. Actually its made it super easy to repaire..................... In the areas it had shrunk or cracked from movement or vibration I used a product called Sikaflex-221, freekin material must have been invented on a different planet. Its a tuff, rubberized Polyurethane adhesive/sealant that sticks to everything but you can sand it once dry. Then I simply top coated it with satin black acrylic latex thats sandable if I have to re-coat or repair later. Workin on settin the airbrush up today for some touch ups.:)

The fellow that trimmed that top wasn't planning on retrimming it too often. The only draw back would be lack of the rear curtain unless he left that part soft.
