Hello everyone,
I'm Nico from Germany and I own a 1974 Corvette. Currently I’m on vacation in Vietnam and would like to get tailor made bags for the roof panels. Unfortunately I do not know the exact dimensions of the 2 roof panels, could somebody please help me out by measuring their roof panels.
Thank you in advance for your help!
Hi Nico,
My bags are for my 69 which used Velcro tabs to keep the bag closed. I think in later years they had metal snaps which I did not like as it might be possible for the metal snap to damage the T-Top.
I took a couple of pictures, but I don't know how good the resolution is when I reduced the images to fit on the forum page.
My bag is 27 5/8" x 23 3/8" and the fold over is 2 3/8". The converts to metric 70.1675cm x 59.3725cm x 6.0325cm for the fold over.
The metric numbers converted out to 4 places, but the measurement was not that accurate. I would make the dimensions slightly larger, because a little large won't hurt, but too small will not work.
I would definitely make the fold over larger as it was too short from the factory and when I put the tops into the bags I can only get one piece of Velcro attached. I guess they never measured in engineering before they made the bags.
Getting the tops into the bags and then in or out of the back area is a pain. If it starts to rain, you are going to get pretty wet before the tops are on the car.
