    71 Hardtop Restoration

    Can anyone recommend a shop near Fairfax, Virginia, which repairs hardtops? I need to have the weatherstripping replaced along with some minor fiberglass repairs.

    Thanks,
    Mark

    Do it yourself... Any paint/body shop can do the fiberglass repairs for you as well as repaint or spot paint. As far as the weatherstrip goes, reproduction weatherstrip kits are off-the-shelf from most of the Corvette Parts catalog houses. It's simply a matter of removing the old weatherstrip (screws + glue) and installing the replacement weatherstrip.

    Use 3M weatherstrip adhesive release to disolve the old glue and 3M weatherstrip adhesive to install the replacement weatherstrip. If you're squeamish about tackling this task, your paint/body guy can do it for you...
