I don't see it as being so hard, but it is different to the MG's. Actually I hate the frame on my MGA. It is very ticky to unfold as one side never wants to follow the other.
I helped an MGB member on Saturday and it did take two of us.
The concept is very different. it is basically a "place on" The rear end has a metal flat bar which has to be slid under two clips. The header is more or less the same.
The main difference is that the Sunbream frame has solid rails around the window with rubber seals which are meant to keep the cockpit well sealed. The MG's have nothing ot this sort. So I would emagine it's a lot noiser.
Now given that most of us treat our cars as "fair weather" cars, the top is only for sudden weather changes. So in that case who cares how much noise it makes.
That being said, there's no reason we couldn't unfold the rails. Clip the top to the back. Attach the header to the two posts. Clamp the header, then with velcro behind the window as well, attach the top to both velcro strips. Food for thought.
Now an electric top would be ideal, but we would probably loose the shelf area. Jim, I think you're right. Let's give this some thought.
OK Steve, next time I'll pass the Elva (i'm sure he would be happy to know that you knew what kind of car it is). The MGB was our host and was leading the way to his cottage.
Cheers,
Mike
