We put a new vinyl top back on our '72 Lemans Sport when we did the car. Looked excellent. These tops were a period thing. Done properly, and looked after, a new top should outlast most of us. In the days of sitting in the rain, snow, and salt, the metal underneath took a beating. The main problem was that the roof, under the vinyl, had virtually no protection. Prepped and painted properly you should never have a problem. I've seen the white with black vinyl and, to me at least, it looks a lot better.
