Need some advice for the Hampton Roads area Mustang owners

Stagray · September 6th, 2007, 07:47 PM

I have a new conv top going on my car. problem is, I dont know who to take it to. I want to get it put on ASAP.

I also have a new SPEC clutch that needs to be put in. I want to get this all done and need it to be close to Hampton cause this is my daily driver. I may end up having to walk to get it back.

So, any advice would be appreciated.

Ricks Car Care is the only place I can recommend

We can handle the clutch install. Give us a call at 455-9660. As for the top, call Young's Upholstery on East Little Creek in Norfolk.

I called these guys and talked to them. Even though they barely speak english the price wasnt toooooo bad. 585 for the install. I have all my own parts so Im not sure why it was so much unless its very labor intensive.

couldn't tell you on that one. I will have to ask my boss how much he paid.

Mitchells upholstry does some awesome work. Right off greatbridge blvd.

I don't know the address but if your turn onto great bridge blvd from battlefield its on your left at the first light.

A lot of the guys at the Ford plant only went there to get their upholstry done.

here's my bosses answer.

"The labor was $330.00. The trick is to get the top, glass, and
parts from ebay or one of the magazine discounters cheap and
bring the parts to them. If you get the parts through the shop
they mark it up."

Awsome, thanks a ton. Maybe I can get this done for 300 somehow
