The Upholstery Forum

I'm in the process of making a top for my '32 Ford roadster. Top irons are in place and I have sewn up a mock top using cheap vinyl. Getting close to time for the real thing. I have three questions.
First: I'll be using snaps around the back to secure the top to the body. What size snaps? The body half will be screwed to the body.
Second: I'm open to what material I should use. Stayfast, vinyl ...? Color will be tan.
Third: Not crazy about the "mail slot" rear windows as they are too small. I think I'll use a flexible plastic. Is there a special material for this?
Thanks in advance.

Most upholstery supply stores should have the proper window material. They can also lead you in the right direction on the snaps. I can't help with that as I haven't done any tops.

Snaps i would try to stay with most common easy to replace . i never did a top but i replace a lot snaps for boats . Cant wait to see it finished!
