Well,
this is a first. I had no idea that you could make one of Bruce's top work on a CR's. I thought they were to short for a CR's body, I.E. not fitting from the windshield to the back shelf and certainly not big enough to clear the CR's doors and certainly not fit the side windows! Maybe Bruce will chime in here.
I think as far as Bill is talking, you do NOT have to modify anything but there are some pieces that have to be 'glassed' in place. the trick is to get them glassed in right! (The header panel for the top of the windshield frame. A thought here is to use a medium dry time epoxy glue made for fiberglass! (SEM) is what all the factory's use and any good part's - body store will carry it.) Mount the header after cut/grind to fit, put glue across the top of fiberglass header, drop the top in the exact place. screw down the back, then put weight-s around the top at the windshield. Give it 20 minutes dry time, depending on what grade of glue you used...There is your factory OEM CR's top!
Not tricky, just time consuming and of course attention to detail counts.
Bill, speak up I haven't put one of your tops on in 10 +/- years!
