[Healeys] Installing a Robbins canvas top

Older cars like the 50-60's Corvette used cloth tops. They also required
clips.  Your local top/upholstery shop should be able to supply the bigger
clips that you need.

Hello, Healeyphiles -

 question from a BJ8 owner:  has anyone personally installed a Robbins
anvas top on their BJ8?  The barbed clips that are used with the vinyl top
round the rear edge to attach it to the channel apparently will not work
ith the Robbins top because the material is too thick.  If that is true,
nybody know the solution?

hanks,
