 :-\ I have a 69RTSE and had the roof redone. The roof was reinstalled incorrectly and I am trying to have it redone like it was originally.

I am located in NJ  in Roseland. I need to find a car that has the original roof still intact so I can measure the seams, document the seam location width height etc. inorder to have my roof redone correctly. Please let me know if you can help me out. The is A4 silver with black vinyl top. It is an original sunroof car.

my cell is 973-865-3364

thanks   Len

Did your car have a single seam or dual seam roof?  My original top had a dual seam, (kept the vinyl roof on for over 20 years before taking it off to ensure it didn't rust underneath).  I'll be happy to dig thru some pictures and see if i can find anything that can help.  I am interested in finding out the proper spacing of the seams just to make sure i replace mine correctly.
