I am having great difficulty getting my hard top (orig Pininfarina top) to fit the body contours of the car, and where it rests on the windshield. I'm curious if 1958 spiders were partially hand made at this point? This may explain the misfit. I have a 1/2inch gap at the center of the windshield when resting the hard top on the car. Also some gaps where it meets the body. I am trying to customize the gasket (it is correct gasket from Matt Jones) by shaving the width where the channel is narrower, and depth which varies considerably in the gasket channel, at the body to hard top contact point. As far as the windshield contact point, I guess the only thing to do is shim the gasket where needed. Any one else out there having the same issues? Thanks, Jon
