    It's been over a year now since I've driven it down the road and to say I miss it is an understatement. I can't wait to have my daily driver back.. :rolleyes:

    She's gonna get a black vinyl top and the grabber stripe kit

    That top looks beautiful. It'd be a shame to cover it up with a vinyl top.

    ^^This. I'm just not a fan of vinyl tops after seeing all of the rust problems with most of them.

    Looks good Matt, I think vinyl tops look great on classic cars... just take care of it and keep it garaged and it should last a long time... I believe the proper prep on the roof is the key to a long lasting vinyl top...
