    Still on the fence on the direction on the 72 GS. I like the one picture I posted a wile back with the green and black stripes. the one hang up is the rear wing. T he vinyl top on these car has been a rust magnet and expensive to have dove correctly.

    The top is a rust magnet the way the factory installed them, but if the metal is protected properly, that issue is resolved. Plus, our cars won't ever see weather like they did when they were daily drivers. The vinyl top will add$1k in material and install costs, but it is canceled out by the body work needed to make the roof perfect for paint if you go sans vinyl. So it comes down to personal decision. To keep as factory original per cowl tag or not.
