Opinions / thoughts on hard tops.

[eighteenninetytwo]

Does anyone who has a pre 76 full top keep the hard top on all the time or use it even some of the time in areas where the weather is good. I'm CA just south of San Francisco. Today its 65 degrees out. Once the top comes off is it ever really going to go back on being that I have a car port and a daily driver in addition? Reason I'm asking is that i could buy another top to make a half cab but i'm wondering if I should just use the one i have as the basis for it and save the $200 for a new top and $100 in gas to get it.
