 Here's another top question:  how difficult is it to install a new
 top, and can it be done without sewing equipment?  The top on my '70
 is in poor condition and has a large slit in the plastic rear window.
 Can I put a new one on myself, or is it better to let a professional
 do it?

 thanks,
 Eric in Atlanta
