Sweet! Im a big vinyl top fan. My buddy had a Cherry Red 72 with black vinyl top, and black interior. Had the cragar rally wheels. Just a simple, clean, good lookin car. Had the original 350 2 barrel, and he did the usual cam/intake/carb/headers. One day i'd like to get one, triple black with the original buckets and console, TH400 and 12 bolt, and stick a nice mill in it.

I had a neighbor years ago that built a convertible 1970 Monte Carlo, The only place you could tell it wasn't factory was at the base of the top around the trunk lid where he blended a skylark convertible top to the Monte body. Sorry I don't have any pics but it was clean enough to win a couple of local car shows. Randy

If I could find one like this, I would buy it probably sight unseen:

I could care less about the 305. It's the swivel seats and T-Tops I am after.
