We put a new vinyl top back on our '72 Lemans Sport when we did the car. Looked excellent. These tops were a period thing. Done properly, and looked after, a new top should outlast most of us. In the days of sitting in the rain, snow, and salt, the metal underneath took a beating. The main problem was that the roof, under the vinyl, had virtually no protection. Prepped and painted properly you should never have a problem. I've seen the white with black vinyl and, to me at least, it looks a lot better.

It'll look good with black vinyl top and black side/pin stripes.

As long as you use a quality top, it will look better with the vinyl top in my opinion. Don't use a cheep repro. Get it from SMS or Kee Auto top.

IMO
i am into 1970's Chevelles and i always hated seeing a White SS until i saw one with a black vinyl roof.
it breaks down all that white with perfect harmony to black stripes and a black interior.
if your 1969 has the black interior with black side stripe it will look stunning.

attached is a photo of a 70 as i do not have one of a 69.
