Convertible Top Adjustment

[Hotelbldr]

Brian, I got out my NPD catalog to see these parts, unfortunately these are not the pc's that are rusting out. These pc's are needed for fastening the top to the rusty trough. I've Talked to my mechanic (over 30 yrs restoring mustangs) his take on the trough is it's not a pc any manufacturer makes, probably not enough convertibles made to make $$$$ out of this pc. I don't understand why every convertible I've seen is rusting thru in the trough
So off we go to fiberglass the trough, it'll be better than new when we're done and it wont rust out again.
