Looks to me you did an outstanding job, can't see any flaws. What quanity of dye did you order? Is it safe to assume that there will be zero transfer of stain on your clothes when you sit on them. I think I can come up with a few things that I might have to do that too.

Which one is the new correct color? top or bottom

I have no idea on where to get a new top, as mine is in fantastic shape. But since you seem to own one, do you know where to purchase a windshield? I tried a couple glass shops for my 1991 conv and came up with zip.

I think they only built # 2 nine cars

Trying to think like a "bean counter" I would say no, why waste the money, they didn't order a radio so they get nothing!!

Lets go with #3. 80%

I pulled my stock two core radiator and had it remade into 3 core still staying the almost same dimensions to fit within the alotted space. The shop took the measurments and figured what they could buy for a core, reused my side tanks. It did help in lowering the engine temps some. The radiator shop was local to me and seemed knowledable about doing what I needed. Don't recall what I paid but it seemed like a decent cost. I have a 91 conv.

Looks like you cleaned up the bottom very well. When I used to blast the bottoms with walnut shells they looked like yours, very smooth and clean.

Rear side windows that opened? or front seats that folded forward?

To my knowledge there are only 7 or 8 of the 1991 Convertibles, I bought mine in 2017 from a fellow who owned it since 1994 he said. On power, it is just the standard 305 GM motor and it is a cruiser, not a hot rod at all. I keep kicking around to repower mine, then somedays I think I should sell it and get something else. I do know it gets a lot of attention when we take it out for a ride. They are nice riding and comfortable, just not quick.

I think it made a huge improvement in the look, nice job you did.

Have a 1991 Converible we bought in 2017 and have had a blast with it cruising around town. It has the 305 power and is not fast, but comfortable and looks pretty nice. So I'm at that point to pull the motor and install a LS, or a more powerful 350/400 or just sell the car off and get something else. Neighbor said it would ruin the value of the car by installing a LS, but would make it really fun and fast. Since I own it I can do as I please and if I changed the motor and when I die my wife would just sell it anyway. She never drives it. Suggestions are welcome...thanks
