Ok, so I've just finished my restoration of my SWB Softtop Vit, I have a new softtop and it looks great .... but, surely there is some trick to removing the softtop and putting it on ?? - can you leave it sort of fitted and fold it up whilst on.. At the mo it takes me about 10 min to remove and replace it - and it is a case of taking it off totally ??? -

Nope.
Take it completely off, or leave it on. If you want a fold down soft top, buy a ford capri.

With practice it takes less time.
I used to just leave it off mostly when its warm enough and just put a garbage bag or the soft top over the seat for the rain when it's parked. My new build I'm not even bothering with a roof..
