The Chevy Styleline Deluxe convertible comes in two materials: Haartz Pinpoint Vinyl and Haartz Stayfast Canvas. Here's what you need to know about each before you make your purchase:Haartz Pinpoint Vinyl: Haartz Pinpoint Vinyl is a two-ply composite with a PVC outer layer and a cotton inner lining. Pinpoint refers to the little dots on the vinyl surface. The original Chevrolet Chevrolet Styleline Deluxe convertible top was made of Haartz Pinpoint Vinyl. Haartz Pinpoint Vinyl is a popular convertible top fabric. In fact, this fabric is original to most American cars made before 1993. If you take care of a Haartz Pinpoint Vinyl convertible top, it can easily last 10 years.
Haartz Stayfast Canvas: If you're looking to upgrade your vinyl Styleline top, consider a Styleline Deluxe convertible top made of Haartz Stayfast Canvas. This fabric is the American substitute for the German canvases used in Mercedes, Porsche, BMW, as well as some Mustang and Lebaron models. Haartz Stayfast Canvas is a three-ply composite material made of an acrylic square weave outer fabric, a butyl rubber core, and a cotton lining. The butyl rubber core promises to make Haartz Stayfast Canvas last a very long time. This canvas is a little richer looking than the vinyl. It's also a little harder to clean. Stayfast Canvas has both better static and dynamic wear ratings than vinyl Chevy Styleline Deluxe tops.

The two convertible top sections are integrated during the installation process.If you can use an air-driven staple gun, and are patient and methodical, you are very likely to be able to install the Chevy Styleline Deluxe top. Installing your own Chevy Styleline soft top can save you hundreds of dollars in restoration labor costs!
