Anyone have a NOS vinyl top they would trade for a NOS canvas top?

I wish you luck on this one. In all my years dealing with the 718 I have seen and owned exactly 1 vinyl top and the condition was rancid. Making it worse is that nobody repops the vinyl version like they do the canvas flavor. I know Murray has an NOS vinyl top on his 718, it may be worth a phone call to see if he has a spare he would sell. When I walked through his buildings with him 10 years ago looking for 718 parts I didn't see tops(aside from the canvas one I bought) but that guy has stuff hidden away everywhere so it couldn't hurt to ask :)

I haven't seen one in the 5 yrs I've been looking but you never know when one may pop up, may give TNJ a call, I see where they are selling some stuff on ebay in bulk, looks like they made several different shades of vinyl in the ambulance top also.
