  1. just in case your top also needs to be replaced: check my postings! I have a top with a perfect back window
  2. yep. once I can decide which model...I will
  3. Hello fellow Tc enthusiasts! if anyone needs a black cloth top in good shape, it needs to go now - meaning, I will have to move and am not able to take it with me by the end of february! anyone? Bueller? let me know ( pics are in an older post named tc parts for sale)
  4. happy new year fellas! I really need to get rid of my parts by mid february!!! the sooner, the better! I am hoping that someone is interested in buying the top - I am not able to store it any longer! So if anyone knows anyone - let them know about the top and all the other parts ( except for the instrument cluster cover _ I sold that one!) Thanks!
  5. thanks John! thats helpful information - I still did not get to the matter...but knowing these details make it easier for me!
  6. my question is: what is a "normal" pricerange for a machineshop to charge per head?
  7. hey guys..quick question...when getting the valve job done, its a good idea to take care of the 2 cylinder heads...I was wondering if the machine shop was kidding me when they said its 650 for each head.... sounds a little steep to me....right?
  8. Rockauto just send me this! so if you need parts for your TC...here you go.. ( Closeout parts!) http://www.rockauto.com/RSS/vehiclefeeds.php?carcode=1398810&m=wc&l=en&html=true
  9. not to my knowledge....as far as I know, they were all the same...this one came out of a red 89 TC that never had the top removed...I did not even open it!...
  10. Hey Reaper!...too bad you are not in CA!, you could come and pick it up! I suppose even if shipping would be free, I would not trust it to arrive undamaged....
  11. mhm...I am really surprised that nobody needs any parts...not even the top! LOL
  12. Hey Trek! your TC looks absolutely great!!! as far as I know, the cluster covers are all interchangeable.Mine has the black bezel which has 4 screws. so either you change the bezel or change out the woodgrain only. ( if possible)
  13. mounting the Radio is not a problem, correct...at first, I thought of a 3D printing service but the scan alone runs at aprx. $500! which is insane...then the modified reproduction would be another $500 to 800....no f$%#^ way...whats left? create a silicone molding and cast it myself ! I will look into this option and report back...
  14. I am actually thinking of replacing my perfect SONY Headunit ( with bluetooth and tunetray) with a Double DIN Unit that supports Car Play for iphones.... Anyone ever tried to fit a Double DIN into his TC? I am sure it is possible - modifying the "faceplate"
  15. little update here...followed all instructions..was exposed to sunlight for about 10 days and it really made a difference regarding the level of stretch...realigned the bolts..slightly changed position..it sits a little better at the header but still not perfect...
  16. When replacing the entire arm, I suppose it is advisable to replace the stub strut bushing as well, correct? Also, I am wondering if I could use either model of these since they differ in design: Looks like an easy job to me and no need to get the wheels aligned again.. any other hints or tips?
  17. sorry, all I have is what is posted....whats your offer for the top?
  18. Hi there fellas! I'd like to sell some of my spare parts - just make me a good offer. Pickup in Los Angeles would be nice! The soft top works great, never had any issues, except for the loose stitching at some places. and the headliner sagging on the driver side rear. ( I already zip tied a couple of loos spots ) it has 1 tiny little hole ( see pics) umbrella looks brand new to me ( I never used it) Instrument Cluster Cover is in real nice shape - no damage or shrinkage.
  19. hey! long time no see! the "old" roof and the one on my former 89 were perfectly sealing at the header....there must be a way to get it right...still have to give it another try!...
  20. I suspect, it was never used once! I installed it in the same spots with the shims underneath and before I latched it for the first time, I adjusted the pull down motor height - it was super tight so I tried to find a way to make it a little looser and at the same time, closing without letting a breeze through it...will try to make it fit perfectly!
