Does this Vert top look Kosher?...
Hey guys it's been a L-O-O-O-N-N-G-G-G time since I last posted and am itching to dive back into this wild-wild world of addictive rotaries.
I picked up a 91' vert a year ago and it just sat as I have not had the funds or energy to touch a rotary like I used to. Not that much has changed, but enough is enough... I need to get back in the game.
The reason for the post is I need a different set of eyes to look at this used vert top that I'll be buying this week, but am not sure if it's in good condition or not.
I come from a 1st. gen back ground so I will definitely be scouring the forum learning new things with this vert.
In any and all help and suggestions will be greatly welcome.

The spot you are probably wondering about is Normal/
It contains a Pocket that collects rain.The bottom of that pocket has a hose that runs through the bottom of the car and out the subframe.

Compared to my top
what you're showing that top looks just fine assuming your getting it for a really good price. Say under $200. I've been running this top as is since 2001 and never had to do anything more than my original repair at the stress point as you can see.
BUT it is missing some of the 10mm "buttons" or they are hidding underneath the rib you're picturing. You just need to determine which ones are missing and poke some holes to install them properly when you put the top on your own vert.
See the picture below.
