Spoke with the owner a few weeks ago. Very nice man. He was more than willing to spend some time on the phone and answer questions. All the parts for your smoothline hardtop are still available. I called and left a message and he did call back :D

These hadtops used to be manufactured by Parrish Plastics somewhere up in PA. They were bought out. I believe IAP is now (re)selling them. I had Bill Parrish make one to my design back in the late '80's. I saw one of his and figured out where the weak points were, so I engineered some changes and he agreed to make it. One thing he did for me was to eliminate the drip mold. That required beefing up the top sections above the window. Another was rounding the corner next to the side of the window, along with beefing up the fiberglass there, too. He also installed a custom headliner I sent him. I suggest you find one locally and look at it before odering. Mine can be seem on "italian car club gallery .....Mikes fiat"
