True $tory. We've done them, and we *still* technically *can* do them... But shit, it's not (usually) worth the money we can actually charge...

If you want to I can ask my Uncle if he's willing to do it for you, 95CobraSVT? What car, yours? Year, make, model if not your Cobra?

Ask away. It's not the Cobra, but it IS an SN-95. It's the wife's 94 V-6.

Do you have the replacement top already? Is the top going to be with a glass window, or a vinyl window? What color is the top?

I have not bought the top yet. I need it with a glass window, and I need it to be black.

Okay. Black is better, and easier on the installers. Glass window makes things a bit more difficult, but not that big of a deal. What's your budget for replacement? I'll get some phone calls made and see what we can do man...
