Superformance Tops
Fitting these tops onto the SPF cars is a topic I've been searching on club cobra. There was one post about an SPF owner that managed to secure an easier fit but shortening the lower stems of the bows on the convertible frame by 1/4 inch. I have not tried this yet as I think that one must be very careful that shortening the height of the top even by a quarter inch may not allow the side screens to completely close with the doors. Using warm water or some modified form of heat are all helpful, but when you are talking about needing what seems like an extra 2 inches of material, perhaps a modifcation of the top frame must be in order. Anybody with an SPF had any success with adjusting their convertible top??
