Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) regarding the removable top:
How is the roof attached? Is the roof water-tight?
The roof weighs approximately 75 pounds and can be removed in less than 2 minutes. The top is secured by two bolts in the front and two wing nuts in the rear. There is a metal header attached to the roof. On the metal header, there are two C nuts (mustang fender nut clips)- the two bolts go thru the mustang convertible sun visor bracket dowel pin guide hole and thread into the C nuts. The fiberglass roof (up front)has a gasket that sits on the windshield stainless steel trim. The remainder of the top is lined withweather-stripping which will keep most of the water and windnoise out, however if this car is taken to a car wash and the pressure washer is aimed at the roof to body lines or the window to roof lines, some water will get in, just like any old Mustang.
