Title: 68 convertable top color
Post by: jim28607 on September 20, 2018, 10:49:52 AM

We’re convertable top/ interior color combo options
available for 68?
Like white top black interior /black top white interior
Or was it always black/black or white/white ?

Lots! but after 45 years, I'd say 90 to 95 percent of them have been changed to a black top! No one seems to like the white tops anymore!

 If I remember correct....if you got a white convertible top, the well liner was still black so as not to cause a white-out effect reflection in the rear window as viewed from the inside. Somehow I remember John Z mentioning that.

Is the 67 blue the same as 68 blue top?
