Thanks NZ.......Now my big question is, "To go black vinyl or no vinyl at all?"  I think they look great either way, but I need to decide what I should do pretty soon.

Tough decision my friend.  But, you cant go wrong, because the car will be beautiful w/ or w/out vinyl top.  My '72 never had a vinyl top, so I dont have to make a decision.  Likewise, it will be a blast as well.  Enjoy. Ovmf

I vote no vinyl

The body line on those quarters are cool the way they
merge into the roof

I like the Vinyl, breaks up the color, makes the car look more upscale.

I vote for vinyl,as mentioned it breaks it up nicely. My car has never had a vinyl roof, but i was pondering that very idea ???

Yes, it was a vinyl top car, along with a/c and a few other goodies.  Unfortunately, whoever ordered it neglected to add a 340 under the hood.... ::)  But that can be arranged. ;D
