I am replacing the soft top on my 1969 roundtail Spider and have some questions.
Some of the frame joints are pretty loose. Noticably where the front bar attaches to the side frame (about 5mm fore/aft movement) and the curved piece, that hangs vertically when the top is up, rattles on its pivots. Should I tighten up these joints? Is there a special tool for the round nuts with a slot in them?
I don't have any springs in the mechanism. On the Duetto parts manual I see there are a couple either side and I look to have the mounting brackets. Should there be springs and if so, are there any available equivalents?
Will 500ml of contact glue (Evo-stik) be enough?
Will it ever end...
