Q: What fabrics do you offer for Ford Mustang convertible tops?
A. We offer quality replacement convertible tops for Mustangs by both EZ On and Robbins. Depending on the model year, we offer tops in pinpoint vinyl, Haartz Stayfast cloth (also known as Canvas & Mohair), Twilfast RPC cloth, and sailcloth textured vinyl for more recent models.
For each model year, we will let you know which fabrics were the factory style – for example, the factory top material for the 1987 and 1988 Ford Mustang was the pinpoint vinyl for white tops, and the Stayfast cloth for all other colors.
As with all of our convertible tops, regardless of which model year and factory style cloth originally was used for your Ford Mustang, we can always substitute a different cloth. All of the materials we offer can be customized and swapped in, just let us know what color and material you want, and we will be happy to order it for you!

The first generation Ford Mustang and Ford Mustang Shelby were the original “pony car.” The late 1960s and early 1970s were the peak years for muscle cars, and the Mustang convertible was one of the best. The Mustang came in a number of high-performance options, including the Shelby special edition, which featured “high performance engines and race-breed suspensions.”
In 1969 and 1970, what had been the Ford Mustang GT Cobra was marketed under the Shelby name. The Ford Mustang Shelby convertible was powered by a whopping 351 cubic inch V8 engine. Although the car was not technically produced in 1970, some of the partially finished 1969 cars were pulled out of stock, completed, and given 1970 serial numbers. Only 286 of these were produced.
For 1969 and 1970 Ford Mustang and Mustang Shelby convertibles, we offer a factory style two-piece replacement convertible top. We have two options: the original style, which featured a plastic window, and a non-original style top with a folding glass window. We also sell the convertible top pads, convertible top cables, convertible top well liner, convertible top tacking strip, and convertible top boot cover, to take care of all your replacement needs.
