Does anybody have good or bad experience with their products and services? I am thinking about the Stayfast canvas... They also supply a manual with their kits - does it help? Any feedback is highly appreciated. Thanks and regards from Germany, Thomas |

Buy your top from forum supporting vendor Al Knoch. Top quality, reasonable price, they even sell the video on how to install the top.

So far, Im planning on doing the top install myself. |
No reaction to overseas request from Al Knoch
Well, I know about the good quality reputation of Al Knoch - already have their seat covers in my car. And of course I would pay the little extra to obtain the best quality available.
BUT... it seems that they do not care too much about overseas orders: I have contacted them twice via e-mail and initially via their online-from. NO REPLY AT ALL... very dissapointing! And on of my vendors here in Germany confirmed that working together with them is very unreliable with sometimes really unacceptable delivery times. So he finally gave up. Reason why I am interested in www.convertibletopguys.com is that they offer Stayfast Canvas - I have asked Al Knoch about this, too BTW (somebody here in the forum stated that Al Knoch also offers those - but nothing on their website I could find). Maybe this post will wake'em up at Al's... |
I bought Al Knocks stayfast top and installed it myself. Top quality. In all I had less than $500 in it including all new weatherstripping. I hope Al Knock gets back to you because his stuff can't be beat.

I bought my top and weatherstripping, etc. on ebay. Everything fit and went together okay. I rented the video from Corvette Central and watched it three times. Then I worked slowly, a little each day for three or four afternoons. It came out pretty good for someone who didn't know what they were doing..........
The only thing I would change if I had it to do over would be the tack strips. Mine came with the paper (cardboard) type strips. I think I would have preferred the neoprene strips instead. |
