Vinyl roof anyone?

Featured Replies

There is a lady that belongs to our club (Z-Sport) here in San Antonio. She shows up every once in a while to a car show and brings her '70 240. It's red w/ a white vinyl top. And she's the original owner.

I'm not to keen on the vinyl tops myself. Just really a moisture trap if you ask me.

I'm trying to find a pic of this lady's car but I can't get one right now.

It's a 71, white with Black vynil top.. I love that look. It's been sitting in a garage for the last 13 years....... Can't wait until I can get my greedy little hands on it.

The vinyl top is actually in your microfiche. Take a look somewhere in the end of the package. I've never seen one of these. Was this a stock item?

Thats the first one I have seen. On the side of strange looking at first. I like the look from the side but from the back of it :sick:

Sorry.

I've seen a couple with a vinyl roof. I think most people realized it just didn't fit the car and was nothing more than a fad that ate up cars in the long run. They truly are nothing more than a moisture trap....:tapemouth

Now a topless with those curves would be something (from the side anyway)! That's what I thought it was at first. Oh well...

I have a row of holes on a simi circle just ahead of the rear hatch. The only thing I can think of is that it must have been a vinyl top. It must have had a chrome strip on the leading edge , so the major part of the top was paint and the rest covered. That is what it seems . Glad to have the repair done and am going to paint soon I hope. :classic:

I saw this the other day and thought to myself...'why in the world would anyone want to do that to a perfectly good Z, it just looks like crap'.:sick: Just my opinion, and you know what they say about opinions...

I think it may be Mperdue after spending too much time at the all-you-can-eat burrito buffet...ROFL

I quite like the look of the Vinyl top. But it must be PITA when it comes to keeping it clean. We have some birds here that drop what seems to be 500 pounders so you'd have to keep the cleaners handy. Saying that, if it is in a garage most of the time then it should be in good nick. But moisture will get in if it is not well maintained.

I still dream of my 1st Zed...one day, one day.

Ho hum.
