11. HARD-TOP

In order to enjoy your Burton in all seasons we have developed a Hard-top.
With its gull-wing doors it transforms the Burton from a cool cabriolet to a flashing coupe.
There are now 3 ways to drive: Cabriolet, Targa or completely closed.
Taking out the doors only takes a few minutes and also the rear part can be removed easily.

The standard colors for the hard-top is winered and black, but of course you can have it spray-painted in any color, even in a two-tone scheme.

Mounting the hard-top.

Mounting the hard-top is not a difficult task, but it does take a reasonable amount of time to get to the optimal result.
The roof-package consists of the following components:
- Polyester doors and rear shell
- Stainless inner frames for doors and rear shell
- Hinge with detachable pin
- Gas struts
- Locking mechanism
- Rubber seals
- Rear windscreen with rubber seal
- All the nuts and bolts you need

The only thing you need to supply yourself are the flap up windows with the hinges and retainer clips from the 2CV.
The standard colors for the hard-top are black and winered. Spray-painting the roof is a very good option, but you will have to mount and adjust all the parts first. Then disassemble the complete roof and have it painted.
After this the final assemble is a piece of cake.

It is advisable to apply some tape to the body to prevent scratches. Use a piece of sandpaper/linnen to smoothen the sharp edges on the polyester parts.

Before mounting the hard-top, make sure the high windscreen is mounted at exactly the right position and angle. (see 7.6, mounting the windscreen)
