    Marina Blue Roadster with Blue Top?

    Had an unfortunate incident last fall where someone backed into my car while my wife and I were enjoying breakfast nearby. The insurance company is repainting the front of my car, so decided to have the whole car repainted (current paint is 20 years old). Like a loose thread you regret pulling.... I've now decided to repalace the top while I'm at it. The car has always had a white top (according to previous owners back to 1975) and the original tank sticker data on this particular option is missing.

    I've never loved the white top and am thinking of switching to the Teal Blue. I have done a lot of online searches for photos of this configuration but come up with very little.

    Anyone able to share a photo of a Marina Blue car with a Blue top?

    Much appreciated.

      I have not called Al Knoch to be certain, but the product is indicated as being available for order on their website (as of today)

        Here is a Knoch top from 2011 that is teal blue on a original paint marina blue car. And yes the tank sticker calls out for a real blue top for a real triple blue car

          Thanks Keith. Assuming Al has them, I think I'll make the change. The white top always seemed a bit disjoint to me - particularily with a black stinger. Matter of taste I guess. I like the rarity aspect of the blue also.

            A white top would be great if you had a white stinger and interior. That car had a replacment 70’s top that was black never liked it. Looked to plain. The blue top set it off very well.

              I can confirm they still stock them. ordered one this morning! Yes, the white top does look nice with a white interior and stinger, I think the triple Blue will look great.
