Default 69 Camaro vinyl top

Is Kee still the name for the most original replacement vinyl top? I know there is Legendary also, but I seem to remember Kee being the better of the two.

Not for 69 Camaro. The seams are in the wrong location. I had to go to SMS Fabrics in Canby Oregon. They made it to the specs I provided from known original cars. The other reason I had to go to them is because nobody offered parchment. The all only sold white material which is different. I have a picture I provided to them if you want to send me an e-mail. Don't get me wrong, Kee has a wonderful product....just not correct for Camaro...Joe

The Kee I ordered and returned had the poofy 80's style backing on it.

I think I ended up with Legendary, either them or SMS.

Thanks. Ya, they must have sent you one with the backing option. I don't want that either.

Otherwise I liked the grain and looked good. I did not take it out of the package far enough to check seams
