The ABM needs a new top. The prior one I had restored is early vs late. This time I’m going to do it myself.
I picked up a late top at the swap yesterday. What are the 4 stages and products from wheeler dealer? I need to paint it for sure due to aging, scratches, dings and chips. Also, what is this seal on the rear inside. It is chalky and old. Needs replacement. Attached thumbnail(s)
