1960 Power Top

[Joe M.]

What parts of the system would have been installed on the car when it went through the paint booth?
Switch covers?
hose/wiring harness brackets?
cylinder lower anchor brackets?
3-bolt bracket between top of trunk cylinder and the deck lid?
motor/pump/solenoid mounting bracket?
two safety switch covers (deck lid and trunk)?

Was the long arm painted or plated? This is the arm that is attached to the switch assembly beside the passenger seat pillar.

Joe,


Not sure what was on prior to paint, but we know that it was only the
essentials. Radiator frame for body stability. Hood and pull hardware so
adjustments could be made prior to paint instead of scratching it all up
afterward.


So, something similar with the power top stuff. Is that part of your car
original paint? If they took stuff off and there are bare spots, then that
tells you.

Re: 1960 Power Top

I would still like to here from someone that has or had a power top. I realize the equipment is behind the cardboard divider. The micro switch beside the passenger seat pillar would be visible by removing the bottom seat cushion and the micro switch cover under the deck lid would be visible by opening up the deck lid.
