Mine was in similar condition when I restored it last year.  I stripped it
and had it painted, rechromed the hardware, replaced the windows and all of
the seals and replaced the headliner.  I spent about $1800 total for all of
that.  Hagerty says that a hardtop adds $5000 to the value of a Tiger.  So
if that figure is correct I would guess that the unrestored hardtop could
be worth $2000 or $3000?  That sounds high now that I say it out loud.

Have Fun,
Joe Brown
