Hi everyone. I have a '78 cougar and i was wondering if it was possible to remove the vinyl top. And if so how hard of a job this would be and what kinds of problems i might run into.

it shouldnt be that hard but if you do remove it you will need to fill in the holes from the molding and deal with the difference in the paint
but why?

The reason why i want to remove the vinyl is to give the car more of a streamline look to it. do you think i should leave it the way it is?
