    CONVERTIBLE OWNERS - NOW SHIPPING - TOP FRAME PIN CUPS - NEW PICS pg. 1

    Project completed and now ready to ship.

    Cutlass Convertible Top Frame Pin Cup Kit -
    2 each pin cups
    2 each internal tooth washers
    8 each Black Vinyl Pin Sheath
    and
    BONUS DVD
    When I bought the car, I found shortly afterward on Ebay a couple of GM Dealer vhs tapes.
    1. Cutlass Convertible Top Diagnosis and Service
    2. 1994 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Product Training.

    Well, it occurred to me that the "Top Service" tape would be a valuable item for all vert owners
    and since I have a way of dubbing from vhs to dvd, I thought I would include a copy with the kit.
    The Cutlass product training is a salesmans guide to the 1994 Cutlass lineup hosted by John Goss of Motorweek.

    Thank you to DOHCRagTopGuy, 95TripleWhiteVert and 93luminaz34 for your payments. Your kits
    have been mailed.

    Thanks again to everyone who has participated and pledged participation allowing this to happen.

    To confirm: pricing is as follows:

    Paypal - $ 47.00 - to my account schmude@bellsouth.net

    I'm in. That's a little expensive for little cups, but still cheap in the grand scheme of all the other things I could buy

    Re: Attn: Convertible owners - Windshield frame trim cups

    $30 for a pair of cups seems pretty reasonable, especially made out of solid aluminum. However, they really should be anodized or powerdercoated black to not have them stand out.

    I bet the machine time is probably pretty decent. Lathe on the inner portion, drill through, lathe on the outside, probably the easiest way to do it. Solid chunks of aluminum aren't cheap either.

    I am confident that I can hold the price to the $ 30.00 if we get enough participation.

    How many vert owner's do we have on this forum?

    I think if we can get 25 cars (50 cup) to commit, we can do it.

    $30 a pair? Man, the last pair that sold on ebay was $45!!

    Would aluminum be able to be painted to at least match the black plastic?

    As I said in the first post,

    I will have them either anodized black or powder coated black.

    Re: Attn: Convertible owners - Windshield frame trim cups

    $30 is a very good price, I figured that the pair I found would bring $35-50 depending on how many people saw the auction and when I decided to list them

    Do we have that many 'verts on this forum? I hate to be the downer here, but I don't see that happening on this forum.

    Re: Attn: Convertible owners - Windshield frame trim cups

    you could always make a few extras and throw them on ebay. Or heck, open a mini-online store

    Re: Attn: Convertible owners - Windshield frame trim cups

    Thanks for the positive responses. I hope we can pull this off.

    If we get more verbal committments on this, I will move forward with it.

    So, let's keep them coming. I will give it another week on the forum and see how we are making out.

    I may also try to contact the members from the list provided above to let them know about it.

    I am excited at this possibility, as hopefully this would be one cosmetic issue I can put to rest. I hope that others feel the same.

    Thanks again everyone.
