What are the differences between a 68 and 69 style vinyl tops?

the 69 vinyl roof style uses a unique belt mldg which allows the 69 model cars to show a small portion of the painted surface of the roof around it's perimeter. whereas the 68 style roof shows no painted roof and the vinyl roof material actually goes under the windshield and back glass reveal mldgs. perhaps someone could post a few pic's to demonstrate the differences? if you look at the factory pic's of the two models 68 vs. 69 the differences will be apparent to you, hope this helps.

Alan, was this car raced frequently at Englishtown Raceway Park ? Was it ever raced with a L-88 engine ?

'69 style (and a '68 sitting next to it.)



'68 style on a '69. No body color showing above the drip rail or on the 'A' pillar.

Boy do I miss seeing that 7200 mile Yenko, Formerly of Henderson. Then went to K. Hand then i believe went to Charley. I think that car is in a private collection now? I never heard a car that had the sound of that one back at the 2000 Reunion. I believe that is the ONLY Yenko installed race motor documented from the mid 70's. Just a KILLER car.
