Hi Folks,
Recently purchased a 67 Cutlass Supreme Convertible. Looks like the car only has 75k original miles. I already ordered a bushing kit and shocks. The top worked great a week ago and now it won't go down. I just hear a click when i press the button. I would like to put it down manually until I can get someone to look at it. I tried to push the top down manually but it seems locked into place and won't budge. Any tips on how to get it down manually would be great. Excited new Olds owner. i also just uploaded a picture of the car in my album.
Thanks!
Mike

In term of the click, does it come from up front or in back by the top well? A quick wrap on the pump body may free it up for a short time if you're lucky. If so, figure on replacing all the hydraulics, or having them rebuilt if you like. Mine is the quietest top I've ever heard.

I used Hydro-E-lectric for my top pump and rams.

I used my old lines since they were still in nice shape. I swapped them out myself and followed the bleeding instructions that came with the parts. It really wasn't too hard to do. About a week after replacing the pump the top relay on the firewall just behind my vacuum brake booster shorted out and I had to replace that too. Good luck with your car.
