Thoughts on the Value of this CL single wall top

Interested in this single wall top, but it may have more issues than I want to tackle. Thoughts on condition?

4 cracks, no stainless hold down strips.....

Re: Thoughts on the Value of this CL single wall top

I would work him down quit a bit!! I bought a single wall up here in michigan this past spring for $400. Granted my top is in alittle rougher shape but the hatch is perfect!! So, with that said I would offer $400 and would not go over $500. That's my five cents!

That one crack going through the inside toward the window looks pretty bad. I wouldn't pay more than $300 for that, maybe $400 if the hatch is better than the pictures make it look.

Thanks guys....

He is down to $500 but those cracks to me looks like the top was put under some stress and I am hesitant in buying this only to find more issues when I get to repairing the cracks.

The top is 2 hours away if I am going that far I would want to be leaning towards buying it, but right now I am leaning towards passing on it.

Thanks for the opinions,

Bob

The cracks on the hatch look like someone dropped
It down hard. Repop hatches are $500. Solid used hatches can go for $250. I have never seen cracks like that near the front windows.
