75 Convertible Top Color
Still trying to figure out what color conv. tops were available for particular paint colors. I believe they made three colors, black, white and saddle. Were all three available for all colors?

I know for a long time there were only two colors available, black and white. Im not sure when they started offering other colors.
I think the only thing that will tell you what you had is your build sheet or original paperwork. GM doesnt keep records for corvettes built pre-Bowlingreen KY (right?) unless they were shipped to Canada. Im not 100% sure but I think thats close.
Good luck.

according to a restoration guide i have the only two colors avaible were black or white and either color could be used with any body color. but i don't think i would put a white top on a red conv for instance whith a black interior for example.

75 convertible color
thanks for the info. my "bright green" currently has a not so good saddle top??. the car has a saddle interior and I was really hoping that the white top was an option for that combo. The white would look great with the green but I wasnt sure with the saddle interior. seeing as the black and white were the only choices, I will be moving forward with the white.
