Title: Correct type of vinyl convertible top 1967?
Post by: Ralf on February 12, 2017, 02:54:10 AM
Hi,
I'm about to install a new top for my convert 67.

Was searching here in the forum, but was not successful in finding the right answer.

- what would be the correct type of vinyl material for my white top?

- what would be the recommendation on the best vendor to buy?

Thx
Ralf

I used the top from SMS Auto Fabric.  It is detailed in the Cougar vinyl top replacement at WCCC on youtube.

The top that I received did not have the seams on the A-pillar. However, everything else looked excellent.

Sure that we're talking about the same, looking to your picture?

Off topic, but who did you buy it from/through? Website perhaps? I need a white version, hardtop...no A-pillar seam ;)
