Hello,
I'm looking for information on vinyl top removal for my 86' Monte Carlo LS. I want to make it a hardtop but idk what the cost would be to have it done in a shop so I plan on doing all the sanding/patching myself. I just want to know what to be prepared for before I start. I heard someone say that I'll need a bigger rear window when I switch from vinyl to Hardtop. Just info on basically stuff to get beforehand so I can get it all at once.
also...
My vinyl top is already coming off an I've noticed a small hole where the rivet was suppose to be. I covered the car with a car cover to make sure no rain gets in. From what I've seen that's the only major concern. The rest looks fine.
How should I patch the hole as well? What type of bondo..etc should I use to prevent the rust from coming back?
Types/grade of sand paper I'll need for sanding the car down?
