It was a good day tater: So my burned convertible had 2 broken top rails, without them the top kinda sagged and would not open/close right. Well as any vert owner knows they are NLA from nissan and used ones command a pretty penny, and are usually only sold complete with the frame. Well I had been pondering what to do before I just decided to take these over to a local shop. They are made from some pretty crappy pot metal, which just broke along the weakest point, where nissan used a screw to hold on some rubber seals and they drilled a hole. Well I dropped off the first one not expecting that it would get welded, yet only a day later I get a call that it is ready to be picked up, so I went back today paid(owch), picked up the repaired part, and dropped off its twin to be welded. Hopefully soon I can get out there and install its twin and have this top back to operational again! Woohoo! And to top it off I got a couple of pitchers of beer between classes, kicked 2 test ass this week, and it hit 52* today so I was able to drop the top on the black vert, wooohooo! The pics:
