[TR] First ride & shrunken tops

Indeed!  Where do I send the check. 

I was thinking of hanging it from a tree in the sun with some weights tied
to it.

Sounds like you need the patented ACME Top Stretcher.  It is a specially
constructed frame to which you snap the leading edge of your top.  Mounted
to the frame is a small jet engine which pulls the top while the heat of its
exhaust softens the vinyl.  It's not recommended for indoor use, however.   

Sincerely,

Wyle E. Coyote

Speaking of shrunken tops.  The Amco top that came with my TR3 comes up
about 2" short, across the windscreen, is there any way to stretch these
back into shape?
