Default Info on replacing my convertible top

We are buying a 1983 convertible, top isn't bad, will make it a while at least until after paint.
I got a price quote of $1200 to replace it. Was told $200 for the top the rest is labor.
Is this true? I've never done a top but with this quote I'm thinking about trying. I've done my share of car, truck and Van work.
Any suggestions where I could get the info on the net? I haven't closed the deal yet, waiting on a clear title.
