Hey Pete I’m going to install rag top on my 66 chevelle hard top! What u
think with 1inch foem or no foem? Like your bud there? What u think????

Lagunas R says:

Ok just asking cause they charge me in Chicago 1,200$ well it’s full top
with patting foam! Hey Pete u think I should get it just like Ramon
installed it in that car or with foam under ? Wat u think Pete in a 66
chevelle bud?

Care to give me an estimate on what it would cost to replace the vinyl top
on a 1984 Chrysler LeBaron?

Lagunas R says:

Thanks Pete!!

MrBlueroads says:

Ive never seen this done, very interesting.

loveanianimeme says:

Hey Pete, What would you recomend? leather or vinyl seats? I want to get a
new interior for my 64 bug sometime in the future but i don’t know if i
should get leather or vinyl? Frederick

skinner5fdp says:

i like the painted roof better than the vinyl

diyautoschool says:

@loveanianimeme Personally I would go with vinyl. Due to the fact that the
new vinyls they have on the market today are better, softer, and cheaper
then leather.. Pete

OsbornTramain says:

its not a head liner, it’s a vinyl roof..the head liner is inside the car

loveanianimeme says:

@diyautoschool ok, thanks Pete =)

ZIGgassedUP says:

They are sure doing a thorough job…I expect they give a good guarantee…

diyautoschool says:

@Moralvorstellung7 I sub out all my upholstry work, the guys doing this job
don’t work for me, but I would presume it would be around 400.00 to 500.00
easy.

WMFirefighter09 says:

That is a very cool video. I have never seen it done to a car. Definitly
interesting Pete, thank you.

diyautoschool says:

@but199018 Yeah it is possible, but you are gambeling on the weather
getting under the lip of it and causing RUST.. If you don’t tuck it under
the chrome trim, you should get some sylicone of the same color and calk it
up to seal the edges in. Pete

diyautoschool says:

Thanks for paying attention, I was wondering if anybody would catch that!

James Eggerth says:

Excellent video Pete !!

Lagunas R says:

Hey Pete u think it’s expensive to install a Rag top in my 66 chevelle? I
think car would look better with a rag top right? I think it will look like
more muscle???

Moralvorstellung7 says:

@diyautoschool That’s what I thought too. Thanks!

Lagunas R says:

U gonna put another video when car is done bud? I wana see the results?

AXE2501 says:

becareful with the hog ring gun. the little twerp will install a new
persing in you, just ask my thumb!

Nick D'Alton says:

Some good stuff there Pete. my neighbours daily driver 68 bug (uk) had
vandals key the roof in the 70’s & he had vinyl put on there instead of a
repaint, still on there today. fact-a-mundo! part 2 man :), your a vinyl
teaser, hows the subscription going? you got to keep growing Pete.

diyautoschool says:

You can go to SWRNC channel and see the conclusion on this story!

Boar Hog says:

take the trim off. it will ne easier to do it at the end of the day, and a
much better job

bcrawdad1 says:
