Wow - I have not run into any of those in my drives. But that price is GREAT and you saved it from the junk yard!

Great Deal!

If that is a two piece top, like on the 96, they do have a rust problem. I know that some of the guys here have just "glued" the two pieces together, a little bondo, primer and paint, sloved the problem. The trim strips are stainless steel, and are available through a couple of different suppliers here. You will need the backing pieces for these though. Maybe somebody makes, or has some of those....
