That's going to be a lot of work. Post some progress pics as you go, it'll surely open some eyes. Bob

I've got a 61 Bonnie bubble top. How do you want it measured?

SURELY...(I know...don't call you Shirley)...

...you are not considering a GM Bubbletop but a 60/61 STARLINER roof say it's so...

OK...I think I am over the intial shock...

I went to see your photo album and it would be a shame to sacrifice a GALAXY 500 XL to mount a GM top. Please reconsider the STARLINER roof. All you would need is a 61 STARLINER donor. It would not have to be perfect. The roof and upper belt sheet metal (along with quarter glass and regulators) is most likely all you would need. The 61/62 upper sheet metal is almost identical.
