WTB Spyder Top

Wouldn't a full tonneau be more weatherproof for towing?

Mine isn't. I know the tops aren't completely waterproof but I would assume better than what I have .......or at least less tape.

There was a Beck one listed here for $800 with top frame, bows, and header piece.

A tonneau on a Spyder is not going to keep all the water out.A tonneau is pretty good keeping rain out of the car when it's parked, not so good when it's moving. A top keeps more water out, I have experience with both in the wet.

The above referenced top is without side curtains. Not so useful without them.

Thanks, again, Danny for pointing out the obvious.

Using duct tape was a big mistake - difficult to remove glue. (1k mile tow from N VA to NW FL).

You're welcome. I guess being southern doesn't necessarily make one a "gentleman".

Happy New Year, and bless your heart.

Danny, you've exposed yourself for what you are. Bless your heart!

Being northern doesn't make you smart. Your intent was not to provide ANY useful information. You placed yourself into what might have been a negotiation wherein you had no personal interest.

Chris McDonald is well aware that there are no side curtains. I have corresponded with him.

What purpose did your response serve?

I stay out of B.S. on this list that does not concern me. Please be courteous enough to do the same.

For what it's worth, Wolfgang offered up your top as an option and Danny responded to him. He is also a good friend of mine and is involved in helping me sort out my car. That would be the purpose.

It's good to have good friends.

As Chris said, he is my friend. Friends are nice to have. I try to help my friends and anyone on here if I can, for the last 15 years. I even help people I've never even met in person, by adjusting their carbs among other things.

So are you attempting to insult my intelligence? LOL, I really don't care what you think.

And he's right, I was responding to Wolfgang/Greg who was also merely trying to help. That would be my purpose.

My friends concern me. 

I really don't know what your axe is Jim, but maybe grind it a bit somewhere else.

Do yourself a favor and block me, it costs you nothing.

Boys, boys, boys- time for pie!

Does this pie have top in it?

It's pie, Chris, that's all I can promise. Any type you want, but it's just pie

Apple pie with ice cream on TOP, would work for me.
