71 convertible question

Hey Guys,

Could some of you post a picture of where the convertible meets the windshield.

I think my top is not going forward enough.
It's causing an air leak at 70 plus MPH.

thank, Gary

Sorry, but my '71 'vert is now in storage for the winter, so I can't supply pictures. However, once you have your top locked down, you should see maybe an 1/8 inch between your top's edge and the window molding.

Some pictures I have seen the top is on the chrome trim. Mine is not on the chrome trim at all.

Your weather stripping is probably worn and need replacing.
