It actually says it if you blow up the the picture 2/07 so jan, of 2007 which really means nothing as far as quality. i put a top on my 67 ( it was an original blue top so i bought another from Al Knock that was a few years old at that time). it has now been on my 67 for 24 years. i'll get some pictures... it still looks and functions as New. of course like 99% of us here we don't drive our cars in the snow, or park out side day after day like the old days so the sun is what hurts tops = drys them out and makes these tops brittle. My tops have been in dry dark storage since i've owned. I'll take one out and unfold it for all to see. and as i said I just sold one to a very fussy owner and he is very happy with his. anytime I ever bought a top from al knock i had to lay it out in the sun or in the winter warm it good before installing. Al's tops although good quality don't give you *any * extra material so you have to stretch to finally staple at the front bow. i' didn't do this for a living but i have installed probable 30 tops in my life. Actually years ago I liked tops from Johns corvette care. great quality and more material so you could install looser. looser i liked better as every top is tight a few weeks after installing = especially when they are left down for any =length of time. i think anyone who has left there top down for say a week and then either put it in the sun unlatched or struggled to latch knows what I'm talking about.

Woodie, do these tops include the clear plexiglass rear window? Do you still have a black one available?
