Parchment vinyl top
 
I'm needing to get a vinyl top for my 69 Camaro. It's parchment. Everybody I've talked to so far only has white. Has anybody had to cross this bridge? Thank you, Joe

Have you tried SMS Auto? I spent months looking for a brown vinyl top for my 69 GP, they sent me a sample of their material and it was perfect. Best of luck.

I'll give them a try. Did you get a top from them?
I had a huge blowout with them when I was trying to get mohair for my 1933 Chevrolet. Thank you, Joe

SMS....great out of the gate but they absolutely get an F for customer service. Having said that, I'd use them again because their quality is second to none, and they have materials that you just can't find anywhere else. I kinda feel sorry for their staff, I know they're instructed on just how to deal with the customer and they seem very personable face to face, they just won't answer the phone. That leaves the customer communicating via email and getting enough info to sell you something, then they ignore you until your item is ready, which is measuered in years. Again, they are an awesome resource, but as a customer, you need to know what you're in for. Buying material ala carte is much more satisfying than using their fab service.

I have not ordered a top from them yet but will soon, hopefully I don't have any customer service issues. I was planning to have them make seat covers and door panels for my Z28 too since they have all the original material required, sounds like I better do some more investigating before I take the plunge on that, thanks for the heads up on that guys.

I did. Kee doesn't have parchment. They only have white. Thank you, Joe

What is your car that you would need your interior special made?...Joe

I've got a orange/orange 69 COPO Camaro and an 81 Z28 that I'm restoring with silver deluxe vinyl interior. The Z28 is the car I'm going to get door panels and seat covers made for. Legendary has told me they'll make a new set of orange seat covers out of NOS material if I send it to them so I figured I would have to do the same with my Z28 until I found out SMS makes everything in house now.

Al knoch would make you an interior using your original vinyl/cloth & they can redo your original door panels. I had my yellow ones done there.

I love the space man suit interior :)
