    Hi all,
    curious to know: are there different colours available for the foldable roof frame, that were maybe originally offered as options?
    E.g. light brown, black...
    Thanks.

    I have an 88 red over black. My frame is sort of an off yellow color. Do you want a picture?

    Hi,
    thanks, no I don't need a picture: this is the exact same combo I have so I was wondering why on a black interior the frame was that sort of cappuccino color... probably now I realize it was the only option?
    Or maybe someone with a black (or whatever color) frame will chime in and prove the opposite...

    Morning !
    I have a blue over red leather and it has a blue top.
    Guess what: same yellowish sand-like color on that frame.
    I think because the inside of the top is in that sand-like color, Ferrari intended to match that so the mechanics would show less.
    I am currently redying both.

    Best regards,

    Mondi Cab

    Yes I agree it's not the best!
    OK so I think we can conclude that, whatever colours of outer top and interiors, the inner top and its frame are "that" sandy colour...
    Thanks!

    Sand color also on my 1990 Mondial t. Does not seem to match any other color on the car.

    Neither on mine! Apart the inner side of the roof, which is sandy for some reason I don't understand.

    What condition are the pivot bolts on the frame in ? Slotted head screw sort of thing

    They are perfect on mine, despite they are all apparently painted together with the frame, which sure is not the best practice on a moving linkage...

    They tend to fail, as i knocked up about 20 for owners as not available part.
