Hi All,
Tonight I see a complete top assembly for sale on ebay, the pictures show a nice looking car with a top assembly and then pictures of the top off the car.
It made me think, why would you be selling the complete top off your car ? Has the person replaced their old one in its entirety ? Have they somehow got two sets ? Or is it a scam ?? BUYERS BEWARE.

I see it listed as sold for $2000.00

Probably just a case of over-thinking.
Maybe if you contacted the seller, you may get an answer to your speculations.

Maybe the guy is going to hot rod/customize the car and wants to keep it open giving it that 'bucket' look....

hi; A member of RG#10 in Oregon bought a '36 Phaeton and later discovered that all the top joints were welded! Seller said top came off, not down. Oh man, a mess. Newc
