Re: [alfa] how long to install a new soft top

[Bernie & Diana Bennett <bennetts77833@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Are they rebuilding/refurbishing your top frame? Or installing their 
already refurbished Or just slapping new canvas/vinyl on the old one? 
Looks like three different times and then there is the question of 
humidity. When my top was installed they had to wait for a day in which 
the glue would setup properly. There were a few cold and humid weeks and 
they refurbished my frame, repainted it &c. Took quite a while. 3-6 
weeks? We have two other Alfas so no worries. Concievably, putting 
canvas on an old frame could be done in a day or less (do you know how 
many little nuts hold the top to the spider's tub! Millions well quite a 
few)
