Interesting contrast in cars-View attachment 109703
I was last here 24 years ago...I had a red BMW E30 318i then..GT-MU 662. GT for Gütersloh.

Lil Bit at the wheel...and, "Surprise, a Spyder got dropped off while you were in yet another meeting..."
Hey, Mark...! Yeah, that and also the strap tension/location on that side. I literally had to "hand fold" mine as it lowered while working out all the kinks. Which, again...aren't completely worked out. And I have the nifty tears at the pinch point. Since my top has the glass rear window I am gonna let a professional upholstery shop take care of that (once I get all the mechanicals addressed).Hi Den
Two Maseratis!!
I notice on the other forum you were discussing the Spyder roof problems. At the moment mine is working and the roof is tear free but when I drop the top as they say when it’s folding up going past the roll hoops it makes a noise like it’s getting caught on the r/h side roll hoop as it folds down. Could it be a slight misalignment do you reckon?
Thanks
Mark

The saving grace is that my LH fuel pump is leaking, so I am getting ready to be alllll inside the capote stuff...
Thanks for the tip, brother...hadn't gotten that far yet! There's (as luck would have it) a really solid upholsterer right around the corner, so I was gonna start there. But that price looks pretty darn good!Thanks Den.
I was looking at the price of tops and saw this firm in the States that seemed reasonable for glass window top.
