Re: My New Find
You should be able to document via the fender tag that the car had that wierd vinyl top. It was called the "Mod-Top" option and is probably one of the rarest trim options there is. There was also a matching interior option in the same fabric. You could have a one-of-one car. Now the impossible part would be trying to find that vinyl top material!

Re: My New Find

Re: My New Find
Hey, Steve, nice Camaro in the mag!
 The paisley vinyl top technically is not called the Mod Top - that was Plymouth's name. I also think these cars were supposed to be F6 green only. The original poster said the car was black. I see three scenarios: 1) Car isn't a paisley top car 2) It's really not black 3) Perhaps the top WAS available in other colors (after all, black matches everything!), the info I have seen had subsequent running changes, or it's a special-ordered car!
