1987-90 Toyota Celica (Asc) Convertible Top and Convertible Top Parts
Important Information | New: Custom Fit Car Covers
Fabrics:
Original tops were either canvas or pinpoint vinyl. Generally, Stayfast Canvas outwears vinyl, typically by about 50%. This is due to the bonding process (between the outer layer and the inside cotton layer) which, in the case of Stayfast incorporates a thick butyl rubber core.
Headliner:
The headliner is the inside fabric ceiling. It is a separate part and is listed with ‘Accessories.’ A headliner which is in good condition can be re-installed under a new top.
Classic Two Part Tops:
These tops, as originally designed, are two part tops, similar in installation to most American tops. The rear window section is called the Curtain. The Main Top installs over the curtain and covers everything from the rear bow to the windshield.
Installation:
You may read how these tops are designed and installed in our top install summary. It is at the blue link at the bottom of this page.
The top installs with staples (always use stainless steel staples) and contact cement. There is no sewing. If you are confident renting and using an air driven staple gun then you are a good candidate for do-it-yourself installation.
Installation Manuals:
Our two part top manual will guide the patient restorer through this installation. It is listed under "Accessories."
With our full restoration packages we bundle the manual with more specific Celica illustrations and steps.
Hold down cables:
Cables are used to attach the top to the frame at the sides. They thread into special pockets on the inner sides of the top before attachment. New cables are recommended with each new top.
Webbing:
Webbing attached to the top bows under the top serves to build out and support the top. Webbing can be re-used through an average of two tops.
Tack strips:
Tack strips are embedded into the intermediate bow corners and into the rear top bow (above rear window) of the top frame. They receive staples that hold the top, curtain and the pads to the bows.
Top Without Accessories:
To order the top without any accessories, please order both the main top and the rear window section. You may also replace just one of these on your car if desired.
