Hardtop

Postby Pops » Tue, 28 Sep 2021 12:09 +0000

Saw a hardtop listed on done deal for €700, wasn't long before it was marked as "deposit taken", add is now inactive, are the hardtops making that sort of money?

I left mine standing in its hungers in a shed forc4cyears and was worried about it warping etc, luckily it was 100% must get one of those hard top bags or make a stand for my new garage

Much the same for mine, hard to think that there's €700 just hanging there

have you hung that by up by the latches?? my post above was a bit all over the place. Mine was left standing on the latches. although at one point I moved it from carpeted area to concrete and put old towels under it. Never warped tho luckily.

Ya, hanging by the rear latches, probably a big mistake but haven't anywhere else to put it. I'd hang it from the shed roof if I thought it wasn't too heavy

Good idea there Steve, not sure if the framework of the steel shed is capable of holding the weight.
Winter weather on the way so I might just put it on the car while it's off the road
