Ford Mustang convertibles were manufactured from 1964 to 1973 and then from 1983 onward. There had been safety regulations which forced convertible cars, such as the Ford Mustang convertible, off of the market for a few years. During this period the Ford Mustang convertible disappeared from production!

American convertibles reappeared, in particular the Ford Mustang convertible. The Ford Mustang convertible was significantly redesigned from earlier Mustangs.

The early Mustang convertible is now a valuable collector convertible car; the classic Ford Mustang convertible is among the most sought after of all convertible cars.

Beginning in 1983 The Mustang convertible became popular again. These Mustang convertibles are actively restored and the Mustang soft top (replacement convertible top) is available from many convertible top sources.

Can I Install a Mustang Convertible Top Myself?
Every Mustang convertible top, until 2005, was a classic "two part top." The main top and the rear convertible top window section (called the "curtain") are integrated during the convertible top installation.

We have the fourth edition of the tutorial two part convertible top installation manual. There is a nice summary of two part top installation in the "help" link on our convertible top guys home page. It should help you decide whether you are a candidate for installing a replacement Mustang convertible top yourself. We have found that owners comfortable with renting an air driven staple gun are candidates for do-it-yourself convertible top installation. We offer the specific Mustang convertible top installation manuals, with Mustang convertible top details for each year Mustang. You might also wish to have our comprehensive two part convertible top installation manual, now in its fourth edition. This covers, in detail, all the steps for do-it-yourself convertible top installation including convertible top removal procedures. You may purchase this convertible top manual to review it before purchasing a convertible top package. We would then pro-rate future purchase of the convertible top when it is ordered.

Modified Convertible Tops
We have the 1994-2004 Mustang convertible top in its original two part design. We also have a modified top, equalt in quality and appearance to this original convertible top. The point of departure is that we have "pre-integrated" the two parts of the top into an integrated one part convertible top. (Convertible tops eventually--Mustang in 2005--abandoned the classic two part design for convertible tops. Our "easy install" version of the 1994-2004 Mustang convertible top is a one piece top. This saves several steps in the top installation process and is thus an advantage for the do-it-yourself installer of these convertible tops.

2005 and Later Mustangs:
Ford abandoned the classic two part convertible top design with its 2005 Mustang convertible. We have a separate manual for this new one piece modular Mustang convertible top. Note that this top is even easier to install than the classic two part convertible top. There is stapling and rivet work required, but no cement work. Most of the fastening is done by reusing the old hardware and the work should go faster and more easily with the new Mustang convertible top design. Our own step by step convertible top manual for the 2005 and later model Ford Mustang convertibles is available. It is included with our complete do-it-yourself packages.

For those who, after reading our top installation manual summary, decide to do their own installation we have the following advice: Set aside a weekend to install your new Mustang top. Order stainless steel staples and trimmer contact cement (usually offered in our top restoration packages or under "Accessories" at the top of our home page menu.) Make certain you have the Mustang top install manual or our full two part top install manual.

The best barometer has been the convertible top owner's confidence in renting an air gun and using it.
