My goodness, what is the funny looking shiny thing around the rear window. That funny shiny thing between the glass and the top, any one else see that or did I have too much LDS in the 60’s?

My favorite comeback from Bones:
On the episode of ST, where the ‘Horta’’ (rock creatures) were
having their ‘eggs’ mined -and the folks doing so had no idea it
was eggs they were mining!- and one was injured by a phaser blast?
When they figured out it was just protecting its young, Bones was
asked to fix it up…to which he blurted out, ‘‘Dammit, Jim! I’m a
doctor, not a geologist!’’
When he (natch) successfully treated the Horta-mommy he was so
pleased with hisself he said, ‘‘I’m beginning to think I can cure a
rainy day!’’
(quotes are close, if not exact!)–

Doug, If the prices for the detachable hardtops continue to escalate, I may be able to recoup the cost of restoring mine. If a person were to buy a sorry example, like the stripped one recently advertised on eBait, I doubt that they could restore it for $4 -$5K unless they had all the chrome lying around.
