Default '53 Crestline convertible top

I have a '53 Convertible and all the mechanism for raising/lowering the top has been removed. Is it worthwhile trying to source the parts to get it working again or is it just best to leave it as a manual top? I have heard that the original cable drive mechanism wasn't the best idea Ford had and could be unreliable, what are peoples thoughts with experience of this system?
