    Does anyone in the Sacramento area have a good recommendation for a repair shop that can fix my convertible top? I think the motor or hydraulics are stuck. I hoping to find someone that specializes in convertibles?

    PM me if your time frame is flexible. Eugenio is here , just north of LA, and can easily diagnose the problem, fix it, and send you onward.

    He's called "a major cut above".

    Cheers, Hank

    It may be easier than you think. You may not even need a mechanic, there are some nuances of the top operatian that you may not know yet. PM me with your phone number.
    I am in El Dorado County.

    Miss my 97'...but it was like a bad marriage;)
    I treated her like a queen but she always had something to "complain" about (valve guides, etc)

    My baggage was not carry-on...more like "checked" luggage w/ the additional fees:(
    Relays, top motor, assembly issues, seals.
    Still miss her though... "swatters blue" w/ red leather,blue carpets, blue top. She was a babe when "happy". I think there were only 2 made in that combo.

    Just for reference: If you opt to replace the top itself, contact GAHH.
