Choppin The Toppin

Today I started by fitting the top properly using a rasp and my eyes. Notice in the first photo the difference in height between the right and left rear sunroof post. This was caused by one of the previous owners piling fiberglass cloth in the channel which the “roll bar” sits in and inefficiently applying resin. Upon figuring this out, I removed the cloth from the partially glassed channel and sanded the rest smooth. Once I was satisfied with the fit and the look, I glued the top on with a mixture of epoxy and cotton flox. Finally I glassed over the fillet I made. Note the more streamlined look then in the prevous entry.
