Can anyone recommend a supplier for a new top for my 66' 300? Just wondering who had good or bad experiences with who.\I would prefer the canvas top over the pinpoint top. Any input or advice would be greatly appreciated. Jim...
Are you planning to install it yourself or have it installed?
The top on my Fury was custom made with a non-OEM material by EZ on Auto Tops. I wanted something different, preferably Gator grain, but no one makes a convertible grade Gator material. So I settled on Cobra grain, used on 20's Fords I am told. They were able to make the top and deliver it to the trim shop in under 3 weeks. Most decent trim shops or upholstery shops should be able to get you what you want. Some might be lazy and not want to deal with a different material, but they can.
I say all this to let you know that you should be able to get a top in just about any material and color you want. Don't let a shop tell you that you are restricted to stock materials. Just make sure the material is rated for your use. I could of had Gator, if I never let it get wet!
I was planning on installing it myself (with help from an experienced upholsterer of course). I was just concerned with quality and fit factors, i'm pretty new to this ragtop thing. Just wondering if any suppliers really stand out from others...
