I should have the opportunity soon to view a 64 vert project car w/power top
for a friend. ("Everything's there, you just have to put it together" LOL)
I've heard (on this list probably) that there is a difference in the framing
for a manual vs a power top. Seems that if a power motor is attached to a
manual framing it's harder for the motor forcing the driver to have to give
it a little helping hand. Is it possible to tell the difference? How? What
do I measure? I've never looked at vert top frames in detail, either LM or
EM.
This 64 will be a project for a non-corvair person but a well trained
jack-of-all-trades mechanic. I've been working on 2 people at work trying
to get them involved. This is the 2nd one I've been working on. I hope to
take the 1st one this week to see a local '60 car for sale.
Thanks for any info you can give me.

Really enjoyed my black corsa this week, even in the 14 degree weather.
