I've got a 1960 18' Continental and am also interested in a convertible top. I have pictures of an original frame with dimensions marked on them that someone took and sent to me several years ago. Happy to share those if better information doesn't pop up.

I have a copy of the CC catalog that list the Canvas Folding Top as an option in 56-57. My Capri had one on it at an early point and will duplicate this top and have it for my Capri. I will enclose a copy of the page from the catalog and also a couple of other photo's I have collected with folding tops. :lol:
