I had a beautiful Saratoga top that I got with my 914, I saw that someone was looking for one and told him that I would sell it. He offered me a reasonable price and we made a deal. I took several hours packing it up to make sure that it was secure, had the UPS supervisors OK the pack job. On it's way to Colorado, the UPS idiots either dropped it off the belt or the tracks through the box prove that it was driven over. Cracked the top about 3 inches over the drivers side almost impossible. UPS did'nt try to fight the claim or anything, what a waste of a great aftermarket piece. These show up from time to time on EBay and are now commanding prices over $1,000. The last one I saw had the original advertising pieces from the company in Saratoga, New York. Anyway UPS after they agreed to pay the claim took what was left of the top, but I kept the hold down levers.
The top are nice but I here that they did sqeak quite a bit the fit was very good. Vysoc (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) |
