Ben,

Congratulations on your "new" car!!! I also own a Superformance with a hardtop.

When I first bought it I discovered the same issue with the window top front fitting outside when you closed the door. I did not know if that was normal or not. It was winter when I picked up my car and drove it about 500 miles home. Stuffed some paper in the gap to keep the cold air out.

After playing with it a bit after getting the car home I figured out that the front of the window should fit in the car when the door is closed. When it does it makes a reasonably weather tight seal.

To get it inside, put a little pressure on the top front of the window when you close it. Pressure should be pushing it in the car. Not downward pressure. Not too much. It will then close inside the car. After you do it a few times the window will probably "train" itself to close properly without the pressure.

After you figure it out it is real simple. The hardtop makes more days "Cobra days".

Hope this helps.

Jack
