Hi, I have the above named motor but it needs a soft top. I have tried other 356 replica people and theirs dont fit so I am gonna need someone who can build a frame and canvas from scratch. Preferably in the north.

Any ideas??

Mine has a roof but I want it to be soft top. I am going to sell the roof that is on it if you are interested? It is half hard top with a glass window and half if targa style soft top.

If you have any photos of your car I would love to see em.

Send me your email and I will email you some pics. Martin@drivingdefences.com
The advantage to you is that it will be the correct size.
I don't have a price in mind, just make me a fair offer.

Try Brockwells in King's Lynn for your soft top. You'll need to source and modify a suitable frame, but they're extremely skilled craftsmen and will make you an excellent top at a realistic price.

I'm thrilled with the leather seats and trim panels they made for me, I can thoroughly recommend them -
