Frustration!

Surfing Craigslist found a yellow 95 ragtop for $2k. I don't need another yellow ragtop, I already have one, but saw what looks like a set of Cervini tonneau covers in the listing. https://cleveland.craigslist.org/cto/d/kingsville-1995-ford-mustang-gt-50/6776648981.html I offered to buy just them, but the seller said he didn't want to separate. Damn! I'm tempted to buy the whole car, keep the tonneau covers, then sell the car in the spring.

You want those covers pretty bad don’t you? Lol. What does a set of those covers go for new?

About $540 unpainted https://www.cervinis.com/94-04mustang-2peice-speedster-cover.html

$2k is a deal then. You could clean that car up and turn it around for $2k without the covers.


I’m tempted to buy it!!!! Lol

This reminds me of my logic. Do it.

I will let the seller sweat it out a bit and then make an offer for the covers, and if he still won't budge maybe make a lowball offer on the whole enchilada.

They run?

They run?

Maybe I’ll let you know tomorrow.

Mine runs!

But if you have the change, I'd buy the whole thing and sell it later, as others suggested. Otherwise you would be buying them and still having them painted.

Still thinking about it...

I was going to wait a week and then make an offer, but the listing disappeared Sunday. You snooze, you lose!

I saw a nice saleen cover on the saleen classifieds on fb recently. Thats the one ya want...

gotta link? I can't open it directly. The advantage of the two piece Cervinis is that if you get caught in the rain, you can take them off and put the top up. One piece Saleens and similar units - you get wet!

I can't link to the add directly but if you get on there it just came up yesterday and looks to be in good shape

 

[PinkieT]

Thanks. I scrolled down and found them. Two things - I am trying to avoid one piece tonneaus, and they would cost me $750 shipped plus the cost of having them painted. I don't want them THAT bad!

The 2 piece are known for being kind of flimsy though. They have a bad habit of sagging in the middle.

Ive heard that for 20 years now but yet have mever seen someone actuall put there covers in ther car. I just want to know hiw you get them in the car and out without scratching them to shit. They wont fit in the trunk side by side? Option 2 stack them on top if each other and hope they fit? Any suggestions on how you plan to put them in the car if it rains?

My wife offered to make me soft bags for them. I would just put them behind the front seats.
