It's those simple little tips that can help out. Glad to hear you noticed.

Take your time and think it through. You can do it. Good Luck!

Glad you like them! Thank you for watching.

Glad my videos help. Thank you for watching and thanks for the comment.

Yep, all the GM tops are very similar. Take your time and you can do it as good as the pro's.

Glad to help. Good luck with expanding your business.

Many thanks!

I hope it goes smoooth and wrinkle free.

Sorry, not for sale but always free to watch on KZfaq. Good luck with your project.

I use 3/8 staples for all areas except the top of the rear window, that bow I use 1/2.

The power top frame, at the rear quarter area, is different than the manual top. Glad my videos inspire others to do it themselves and take pride in their car building skills.

I have used 3/8 and 1/2. I'm pretty sure half inch round is what came from the factory but I'm not positive and I'm not having any luck finding the facts.

Those trim parts are very difficult to get back on without chipping the paint. The clips press onto the pinch weld area of the back window well first. The trim then snaps over those clips. The more clips the better the trim holds on. Put both trim parts together in the center and work your way around both rounded corners. Be careful not to force the trim too much or you will chip the paint. If it looks like you may chip the paint, protect the paint with something like tape. I never did get my trim on perfectly and I have not seen a Camaro with perfect trim fitment either. Good luck!

@@riderescue Awesome! Thanks for the advise, my painter told me to use low tack tape on that area and to double it up so it's twice as thick. I think it would make me sick if I scratched it, so I will be very careful with it.... Thanks again and God Bless!

The staples are difficult to replace so I glue and screw the track strips. It's a balance of small head screws so that they hold the strip but not get in the way of the other staples that are used to hold the top materials.

Thank you for the quick response and the videos…

@@oceanpatrol1999 Your welcome and thanks for watching!

I think there is 3 different sizes of tack strips used on most GM top frames. Look into kits from top rebuilding companies for your model and you should be able to find the size and lengths required.

It goes over the rear seat metal panel with spray glue. I used 3M 90 and sprayed both the top edge and front edge of that back seat support as well as sprayed the inside of the well liner along the edge that will pass up and over the metal panel. I also used a screw with a large washer at the ends of that metal panel to keep it from pulling away on the ends.

@@riderescue Great I will do the same with the screws Thank you so very much and God bless!

I measure from the center of the chrome trim where the two trim pieces meet up to the center of the rear bow. I also measure both sides from the end of the pad down to make sure the rear bow is straight.

Sorry I don't know the brand. I got it from rickscamaros.com

I have received great feedback for the Camaro top videos. Not sure about selling them or the potential value.

Yes, tops are very complicate and very time consuming. Many upholstery shops do tops and they are expensive but worth every penny. If someone has the time, patience and skill they may be able to do it themselves and save. It's not just the money, it's the pride of doing something yourself.

Sorry for the delay in answering your question. I purchased the kit, and all the other parts, from rickscamaros.com. The box the kit came in did not have the manufactures information so I don't know the make.

I saw in your thread the reply to my question. Thank you fir sharing your experience, and time.

I work out of my garage in Salt Lake City, Utah. I only work on my own personal car collection and flip a car now and then for some quick car money.

I do love glass windows but this mostly original Camaro needs the original look top and window.

SORRY! I was out of town for the holidays. Thank you for all of the comments and for subscribing. I purchase all of my parts for this project from rickscamaros.com Good luck with your project!
