And the original rails can be overhauled to like new with little to no disruption in play/practice once the new spare rails are installed. I think this thread was the one that convinced me to go this route.
I do believe so, the blinds and pockets are completely different between the two, so it would require an entire top change. See the earlier post where there are pics of what the conversion looks like at Surge Billiards in Chicago.
Cool idea, but I bet it'd be cheaper to have Mark rework them with new rubber, if they are in good enough shape. Still a nice option if you bought a GC 1 or 2 with a trashed top altogether.
I would guess its cheaper to buy GCV rails than it is to buy an entire GCV and when you are done putting a new top on your GCI you basically have a GCV.
I still hoping that someone can answer the original question about putting a GCV top on an older Gold Crown and how much the conversion is.
