Hard top questions

[Steve Harvey <stevenh@execpc.com>]

Hello list,
I purchased a hard top for my 68 2000 this summer. The three locking
hinges that were included  are worn beyond help or restoration. Has
anyone come up with a way of securing the top without using the stock
hinges?

I'm thinking of using a hardened bolt on a swivel hinge attached to the
top and a slotted "U" shaped steel stopper on the windshield frame. A
wing nut would be used to tighten the top to the windshield frame.

Thanks
