Yeah, those pop tops are kinda hard to find and not very cheep.  They last very long with a little care.  How are you gonna fix it to your top?  Good project...

  Subject: Weird Liquids & Popper questions....

  Hello All!!

  I have a couple of questions for ya. This weekend I decided to pull all of the old electrical connections, vacuum lines, and a few choice peices off the top of my engine and clean them up or replace as necessary. When I pulled off the Intake ports (air/FI) I noticed a sort of yellowish liquid. This was on both heads. Seems pretty weird. Note that I recently rebuilt both heads, and added a K&N air filter. Would either of these have anything to do with it? Should I worry?

  Second question. I was down at Bry's yesterday and found an older Vanagon with a pop top I haden't seem before. The topper was essentially one peice of fiberglass, with the Pop part going straight up, no an angle. I loved the look of it, and it seems to be in pretty good shape. The guys at Bry's want $300 for it. I'm thinking that that is a bit high. What would be a good price for this kind of pop-top?

  Thanks,
