JJC Posted December 12, 2018 Report Share Posted December 12, 2018 This topic pops up (or off) every now and then. Earlier this year it appeared again, in the thread was some Roger advice on the depth of the aperture at the front of the capping. My Surrey soft top was always a pain, never fitted securely and was always a struggle. Taking Roger’s advice I made up a drift like a sawn off kitchen spatula with the correct depth marked on it. After a bit of easy fettling I could then fit the top on my own even with arthritic hands. Having now rebuilt the engine (another story) and tried it up the road the top stays securely in place at legal speeds. Given that this problem turns up every now and again, presumably after a rebuild, it might be worth putting Roger’s advice available somewhere permanent. JJC Quote Link to post Share on other sites
