Re: 69 Chevelle vinyl top material
[ QUOTE ]
I know in 68.. on the Camaros they used a plastic strip in the gutter of the drip rail.....My car had them,and I've been lucky enough to have seen a few others....Very tough pieces to find today. Most broke due to the heat and went sailing down the road.......  Steve [/ QUOTE ] 69 Camaro's don't have this problem as the vinyl top ends about an inch offset to the inside of the drip rail. A separate trim piece covers the edges all around. This feature is the only reason I am planning to put my vinyl top back on some day. Nuch

Some of the best in the hobby will be there. We'll make it a Restoration Seminar.  (Actually, not a bad idea; whaddya think?)

Re: 69 Chevelle vinyl top material
Bob:
The non-padded top is available from The Paddock. Very correct. The rain gutter retainers pre-66 were stainless steel strips - not the mylar/chrome strip used in '67 and up. Dave
