12 hours labor for a top replacement? Posted by MI-Roger [Email] (#882) [Profile/Gallery] (more from MI-Roger) on Fri, 30 Dec 2011 09:32:47 In Reply to: Re: I may be looking at a C900 'vert yet this week, Cary, Fri, 30 Dec 2011 07:37:21 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Is this to replace the entire mechanism or just stretching new canvas onto the stays?
The advertisement for this car does mention the top is beginning to show wear, and that the boot cover is in worse shape (someting about repainting or recoating the boot?). I didn't worry too much about that until you stated 12 hours of labor to install a new top! Wow, an instant $1,500 to $2,000 cost adder.
