Thanks, the top has the stripe down it that lines up with the car body.

I am still working on getting the headliner to stay clipped in on it and not having much luck in doing so, I might have to use some bonder in places to get it to stay put!

I always like that look of the hardtop painted to match..mine has the vinyl cover which is in perfect shape..I don't have the option to do that to mine..well I guess I could do anything but some people would be upset!

We met at the Corvettes on the Square a couple of years ago. Still love the look of your Vette. I'm still wanting to get a set of those Coy's

Looking through this thread just keeps reminding me why I want a '69, even though a Nassau Blue '66 would make a better big brother to mine. The four fender gills look so much better than the '70 - '72 egg crates, IMHO of course.
