We priced out a number of local upholstery shops and the cost was more than we perceived the car to be worth. Finally went with replacing the whole top (frame included) with a used OEM German canvas one in good condition from a wrecked car. It was a bit of a job but came out looking and functioning very well. The biggest hurdle was finding the correct tack strips. Have to say it was a rewarding project in the end with a total cost of around $300 including the tack strip material, pneumatic stapler, stainless staples and hydraulic oil.
