After looking over the '60 I just bought I can see that it was a powertop car with two fours (based on the tach); I also talked to the PO who confirmed it was powertop equipped as well. Of course the powertop assembly is long gone.

However I spoke to a friend this morning who happened to have c1 power top pieces and he sold them to me- so know I have a few relays switches etc.

I expect the price to be high for the right pieces, but I have plenty of time to find and source out what I need. Who are the power top gurus and where would one start in their aquisition of the parts?

I also know that these tops are complex and that making them fully operational will require knowledge and skill- Right now I wish to acquire the parts and the knowledge.

Also looking for any parts for a conversion to a '62 powerglide set-up.

Thanks

I have a complete power top system taken off my '59.

Although not shown on the above link, I also have the soft top frame and associated brackets.

Email me if you are interested.

look up "corvette power top service" on youtube. john schell in indiana has the knowledge and most likely the parts, if you need any.
