For some reason it is difficult to find high quality car
hoods for American and European Classic soft tops.
The other day I approached a Classic Car Owners Club to see whether
they knew of any members in need of a new Soft Top Hood. They knew of some members
in need of Sunbeam Rapier hoods, but did not expect us to be able to supply
them. Well, we do, alonf with Tonneau Covers a Hood Stick Bags!
Driving a cabriolet feels like
a luxury on a hot summers day, the wind through your hair, the sun on
your face... but the circle of life continues, and autumn and winter
soon dawn on us. Time to get your jackets on and your car hoods up. Its not so bad, I hear you say, driving with the soft top up! Its like driving any other car.
ETC is proud to supply the market with many Classic British Sports Car soft top hoods and accessories. Being a British Company we would not want to see our beloved British Soft Tops dwindle into the past in the same way that our motor industry has. Our range of car hoods includes aftermarket parts for Triumph, MG, Lotus and many more.
It's funny how things come in batches...Buses, policemen...and Toyota Celica's requiring rear window repairs! For once, we can't blame the weather either. But there does seem to be a rather spooky number of similar aged Celica's coming into our workshop currently for rear windows which have either fallen out of their bonded position or plastic windows which have cracked.
Now that everyone is back into the work routine after the Christmas and
New Year break I thought I would let you know the lastest news from our
friends Robbins Auto Tops across the pond. As always, for 2009 Robbins are planning new Replacement Soft Top Hoods for the market, the most eagerly awaited of these is probably the Vauxhall / Opel Astra Mark 4!
