Corvette Convertible Top Pads.   Details... Pads are either foam filled fabric or special nylon webbing that attach to the frame bows underneath the top. They serve to align the frame bows to which they are attached and to build out or support the top. Pads should be inspected and replaced if in doubtful condition.	$44.00	In Cart! View Cart
Front and Rear Top Frame Bow Tack Strips   Details... Installation often involves tacking or stapling of fabric to frame bows. Tacking into the bow over the windshield (header bow) and into the bow over the rear window (rear top bow) is done into special strips embedded in these frame bows. We offer new tack strips for the front and rear top bows. Tacking strips may also be required for pads (webbing) where they are stapled (often) to the top bows.	$19.95	In Cart! View Cart

You can read about cable installation for two part tops in the installation summary link.	$32.00	In Cart! View Cart

Chrysler Sailcloth Vinyl is a two ply composite made of a PVC sailcloth grain outer layer and a polyester/cotton lining fabric. It is the fabric developed for Sebrings and late model Mustangs several years ago. It is a vinyl whose surface grain emulates canvas. It is a less expensive, though beautiful, fabric than our canvas toppings. We therefore offer many of our originally canvas tops in this vinyl fabric.

Haartz Pinpoint Vinyl’s design is original to most American cars from the fifties to the nineties. Pinpoint refers to the little dots or pips that you see if you look closely at the vinyl surface. European cars, such as the old Beetles and others also used pinpoint vinyl as the topping fabric.

Haartz Stayfast Canvas has a canvas outer layer and a preshrunk cotton inner layer. The two are bonded with and separated by a butyl rubber core. It is this core that makes the fabric last a very long time, with both better static and dynamic wear ratings than vinyl toppings. Haartz Stayfast is the American substitute for the German canvases used in Mercedes, Porsche, BMW, some models of Mustang and Lebaron and others. Canvas is widely regarded as "richer looking" than vinyl. It is a little harder to clean. The inside of the top is pre-shrunk cotton. The inner lining is usually black.

Original Windows: The original rear windows were plastic. The plastic windows we employ are always of the heaviest gauge plastic available.

Hold down cables: Cables are threaded through the top's inner side hems (the cable pockets.) They hold the top to the frame at the front corners and near the upper rear cornet. Cables are recommended with each top.

Tack Strips: Staples (or tacks) are used to attach the top at the header bow and rear top bow. These are driven into embedded tacking strips which are attached to the bows. Tack strips should last through two tops.

Top pads: The top is "padded out" along its sides with special webbing. Pads should last through at least two tops.

Package Specials: Our top packages include items needed for a complete top restoration. The top packages include an installation manual for this car's top. We can also quote on packages for you in any fabric and configuration.

Do-It-Yourself Installation: A sizable percentage of our customers do their own installation. Our manual, with notes made during the removal of the old top should allow owner installation; we cannot provide consulting services to installers. The top is attached with staples (or tacks) and with contact cement. There is no sewing involved.
