This is my first post!  I am new to CLC but not necessarily Cadillacs.

I have a 1966 Fleetwood Brougham and it needs a new top.

Can you guys refer me to a source for the correct vinyl top material and layout?

Also, I am looking for an upholsterer reference in the Nashville, TN area.

I figure I might have to buy the top myself and have it installed by someone to make sure that I get the show quality/factory correct end result.

John, I think you should make sure you get enough material. I bought some from a guy who indeed had "enough" according to a chart supplied by another source, but there would have been no extra to take care of any mistakes. SMS who advertises in Hemmings should have the correct and original material. Good luck, and welcome to the Club.

Tuxedo grain is close but the pattern is a bit finer than the correct cross grain pattern.  I put Tuxedo on my 70 Coupe and most people didnt know the difference.

All good men own a Cadillac but great gentlemen drive a LaSalle. That is the consequence of success.
