[Healeys] Windshield Adjustment & Hardtop

[healeyguy at aol.com]

There is going to a big problem if you have to start moving your
windshield around on a BJ8.  The vent window fit is hard enough without
throwing the hard to into the mix. I would be having second thoughts
about the new top at this point......

Sorry for the conversion....the car is a 1967 BJ8.

All inputs are welcome.

Paul,

I'd like to assume you're talking about a 6 cylinder roadster???

It's going to be a struggle and a balancing act between the angle of
the
side screens to the windscreen angle, to the fitting of the hardtop, to
the
sealing around the hardtop perimeter. Some will almost just drop onto
the
car (but not often) while most will be a struggle with cheating that
will
occur that only you will know about!
Have fun!

Rich
