Vette(s): 1972 LS5 Convertible,Auto.Targa Blue with Black Interior.

Once again I'm looking for expert advice.......Convertible Top advice. I have been looking at new tops and I'm amazed at the choices. First choice I guess is what material to choose. I see Haartz Stayfast Canvas, Haartz Pinpoint Vinyl, Chrysler Sailcloth Vinyl. These are the choices at Convertibletopguys.com. I'm checking all the usual places but I need some guidance. You guy's never let me down.
Thanks

I've never heard anyone say anything bad about Al Knoch tops

I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

Vette(s):
SOLD - "The Toy" - '70 Convertible
SOLD - "The Beast" - '90 ZR-1 (#682)
SOLD - "Betty" - '28 Ford Model A Tudor
SOLD - "BLKBRRD" - '78 Pontiac Trans Am
"BLUBYU" - '04 Coupe

Put an Al Knoch top on "The Toy" 6 years ago and it still looks great. Had thought about doing the job myself but after doing some research on what was involved (and I was running out of time) I opted to have a pro do it. When looking for quotes to do the install most of the shops that I talked to wouldn't even consider doing it until I told them it was an Al Knoch kit.
