    anyone have any clue what vinyl or fabric to use for a top on a T Bucket. I have the hardware but not sure which material to use.

    Any good upholstery shop should be able to fix ya right up. Pretty much all convertibles use the same type of material.

    I always thought it was "Marine Grade Vinyl". The stuff Boat tops are made of.

    There are half a dozen choices just for Jeep tops, plus convertibles have 2 or 3 more. Contact a top shop or upholstery shop, maybe a sail and canvas shop if you are near a lake or the coast. They can look at your setup and give the the pros and cons of each material.
