The '67 I am driving right now has a read top in it a well.

Look for it in my threads, its the black one.
The worst performance mod is whatever you're limited to because you convinced yourself (or others) that anything bigger or faster was too extreme for a street car.

It is actually very good.
It opens and slides very well.
I am not a sunroof/convertable person so I only opened it once for about a minute....then shut it again.

I don't need extra help burning my dome....

I drove a 63 Ragtop for years as my daily driver. The best part for me was the ragtop. :2up:
 
I found the worst part about my 21 window is people in the front seat do not get the benefit of the ragtop when driving. The ragtop starts in the cargo area. :2down:

ya i miss my rag top bug , when i got it it had a "custom" top (a old army tarp) so i took it off and cut a nice peace of sheet metal for it that clamped on so you could take it off in the summer and poke your head out (choped the roof 4 inch) dino style
im the fox, love the vw here to get and give any and all the help i can but mostly in need of help, im good at customizing and body work tho
