    It seems the only vinyl tops for the 70-72 GS' are either black or white.
    What are people doing if they have the dark brown or other colors that were popular?? Are there still some out there??

    There are no "Buick" vinyl tops, vinyl tops are universal fit and come in center seam or dual seam, padded or unpadded in various degrees and different grains. You can get virtually any color top for any car in any grain. I know, I've been in the Upholstery business since 1977. :grin:

    I asked the same question a while back and still have not found a source for a dark brown top.

    Really! I didn't know that.
    I figured I would have a hard time when I get to the point I replace the top on my Riviera. (Brown :laugh: )
    Since the world seems to revolve around A-bodies, I figured the shop would use my old one as a pattern.

    They are just flat vinyl sewn together, the shape comes from gluing them to the roof.

    Thanks Randy!
    That makes sense that you should be able to buy what you need.
    I'll have to get with a good shop when the time comes.

    This is a link from a company where I probably will purchase a vinyl top for my 73 Riviera in another color than white or black:
