streetbeat ragtop kits

Post by joeherb53 »

i have a 62 beetle that i am making into a herbie replica. the car started out as a hardtop and before i learned how easy it was to graft in an original ragtop assembly from a donor car, i bought one of these aftermarket kits. the hole is cut in the roof, and the piece that has to be glued in is fit into place and is painted, but I still have the rest to go.

The instructions are very vague, and the pictures on the website appear to be of a ragtop installation on a chevy suburban....so I was wondering if anyone out there has a streetbeat kit in their bug, and if so, do you have pictures of the installation progress and with the finished kit in place.

thanks. joey mcdermott.

I bought the canvas kit. It is in the process of being installed. My friend, a profesional painter, is doing the top work. He is 100 miles away, so I can't see it every day. I will see it in a week or so. I will talk to him tonight and ask about the install - problems, fit, etc. and let you know.
