Restoration / Re: VINYL TOP MOLDINGS??

I haven't seen a template but once you have a used set of trim, you should be able to lay it out on the car, make it symetrical, and figure out where to attach it.  There are a few pics of the mounting holes and studs in my pics.

General Discussion / Re: Vinyl Top

I was a teenager in the late 70s/early 80s.  Everyone I know who restored (or hacked) a car got rid of the vinyl roof at that time.  It was not considered cool.  I left mine on, though I'm not sure if I would have had I completed my car when I was a teen.  I think that I prefer the look without but like the top too.  I like the fact that my car has the top and is frost grren (or will be once again when it is done.)  That is a combo I almost never see.
