New Edition!!!
Convertible Top Guys' "How To Remove and Install Classic Two-Part Tops."

This 40-page, extensively illustrated how-to manual walks you through removing and installing any two-part convertible top. The manual applies to almost all American convertibles made before the year 2004, and some foreign cars, too, like Celicas and Saabs. This 8 1/2 x 11 book is designed as both a tutorial for first-time installers and as a step-by-step manual for these convertible tops. Generally, all that is needed and not contained is the "bow height" which is the setting of the rear top frame bow for your convertible. This is available from any top distributor ot can be measured with the old top on the car (as illustrated.)

What skills are required ? (1) The ability to drive staples into bow frame tacking strips (2) The ability to orient fabric sections to the frame and apply with contact cement. (3) A systematic and careful personality ! (There is never any sewing required.)

Note: Very early cars (forties) had wood bows and installers will have to adjust processes for stapling to these bows instead of tacking strips in steel bows as described in manual.

Important Information

Original Factory Color(s): Black, Ford White and Ford Blue

Classic Two Part Top:
This is a classic two part convertible top. The main top and the rear window section are integrated during installation. You can read all about how this is done at the link below to a summary of our two part top installation manual.

The summary posted here, or the complete manual will allow you to make an intelligent decision about self installation.

For these Mustangs we also have a detailed illustrated top installation manual specifically for the classic Mustang. It is available only with a purchase of a new top; this manual is included in our top special packages.

If you are comfortable renting and using an air driven staple gun then you are a good candidate for do-it-yourself installation. There is stapling (with stainless steel staples) and glue work. There is no sewing.

Fabrics:
These tops are available in Haartz Pinpoint vinyl, Haartz Stayfast canvas or in Eurotopping. Eurotopping is identical to Haartz pinpoint vinyl in appearance. However it is constructed with a butyl rubber central layer (between the outer vinyl and the inner cloth) that makes it extremely durable. This butyl rubber core is also characteristic of Haartz Stayfast canvas.

Original Color(s): Black, Ford White, and Ford Blue

Rear Window:
The original rear window is plastic. We use the highest grade 'Regalite' automotive window plastic in our tops.

There is an aftermarket rear window available in glass. It is a hinged glass, shown in the picture at the top of this page.

Hold down cables:
Cables are installed in the side pockets of the top and hold the top to the top frame at the sides. More on this is in the install link below. New cables are recommended with each top.

Tack strips:
Tack strips are embedded in the front and rear top bows and receive the tacks or staples that fasten the top. Tack strips usually last through two tops. Replacement strips are available (See "accessories.")

The rear bottom of the top is stapled or tacked to a belt line tacking form. This consists of three separate pieces which, collectively, are called 'the trim stick.' Trim sticks can usually be repaired by splicing new tacking material.

Top Pads:
Pads are nylon reinforced webbing that install under the top, front to rear, along the sides. They "build out" the top. Pads usually last through two tops. They are also available here, at "accessories."

Boots:
The original Mustang boots were usually Sierra vinyl leather grained boot swatches that you can view. Just click on the "check out boot fabrics" and you will see the choice of boot vinyls. Please jot down your choice. You can specify it in the checkout message box.

Boots are custom made from original boot patterns. Please allow up to three weeks for a boot to be made and shipped.

Interior Restoration Book:
We've listed a book by Art Trantafello uder 'accessories.' It is an extremely well written and illustrated book on all aspects of upholstery work. It includes a great chapter on installing the top..

Hydraulics:
We now stock hydraulic cylinders, motor-pumps, and hoses for your convertible tops. All are made to OEM specifications. Each can be ordered separately; however, when ordering hydraulic cylinders we recommend replacing both. The chances are that both cylinders were manufactured at the same time: if one is on its way out the other may follow. If the top is raised and one hydraulic cylinder is working harder than the other the result over time can lead to a slightly bent convertible top frame. The replacement of both will ensure that the top raises and lowers symmetrically.

Systems for this car take Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) and have a 1 year warranty when used with this fluid. Brake fluid should not be used as it voids the warranty. We also offer an installation manual when ordered.

The 12 volt motor-pumps include a mounting bracket with rubber grommets to reduce vibration.

CONVERTIBLE TOP FABRICS
Almost all manufacturers use Haartz fabrics. They may specify "heaviest weight" or "original replacement" in ways that seem reassuring. But they do not really tell the whole story. Please bear in mind that two things dominate, by far, the quality issue: (a) the manufacturing quality control in the factory that makes the top and (b) the care and thoroughness of the installation. There is a trade-off in weight: heavier is better for resisting tear through, but lighter is better for flexibility and abrasion from within that may arise from movement. Almost all our tops are a flexible medium density (36 oz.) fabric. Heavier is not better in most cases. Where it is, because of the top design, we will say so and the top will be made of the heavier vinyl.
Warranties outlined here are only applicable for products installed by a professional trim shop or professional upholstery shop. For Convertible Tops, and related products, the manufacturer will void the warranty for any product that is not professionally installed; manufacturer defects are covered by the warranty in such cases. The manufacturer is not responsible for damage due to improper installation.
