Trim shop.
Anyone know a good shop or someone that does tops on the side. I need one for my 65 coronet. Area's I can travel to are Northern Illinois, eastern IA, or So. Wis. Let me know.
You shouldn't have any trouble finding a trim shop it that area. Just do a google search.
You can buy a pre made top for around $2/300.00 but I would recommend a custom made top. If your top is the original and is in decent shape it will be a great pattern. Also.... This is the time to refinish the top frame. White tops were were finished in White, All others were black. I would expect to pay around $1000.00 for a complete top with all new seals and the frame refinished.
What model 65 Coronet do you have.....? color.... engine.... pictures....?
