Convertible Tops

Victoria British is another place (victoriabritish.com) and don't discount your local upolstery guy. I think the Autoist (Tony) might be able to help as well.
 
I'm a Robbins dealer as well as Moss...can usually compete with everybody except the "el cheapo" tops.
 
Robbins tops are the ~ONLY~ ones to fit, IMO.


And I been doin' this for a while now.


Just one old wrench's slightly biased opinion, mind you.
 
I bought a Prestige soft fabric top directly from the manufacture and it fit perfectly with no problem. Installation was a breeze. The car is quieter inside with this top verses the vinyl top it had. Everyone seems to like the soft satin look.
 
I bought the cheap Prestige top for my B. I got what I paid for. Material seems real thin, as do the windows. Windows started to fade after less than a year & I keep the car in a garage. The old Aamco top it replaced lasted 15 years.

Like I said, you get what you pay for. Maybe their more expensive tops are better.

Tom Robbins' tops have served us well for decades. Lotus, MG, Alfa... Never a "surprise" and always top quality goods.


...again, just my two cents' worth.

I bought the Prestige Sun Fast top. Not cheap by far, but the fabric is top quality and the fit was perfect.
