@ Lightfoot, the top is called cordova? (not leather or vinyl?) It is getting some cracks, is this "easy" replacable? I would like to keep it mostly original, and often i see the top painted instead of a new leathertop.. probably more cheaper also..

Once again, thanks for the feedback

Replacing the vinyl top is not that difficult...but finding the material and locating someone in your country with the knowledge and experience to do the job could be.
What parts of the A/C are missing? You might be better off with a Vintage Aire system.
