Again, Do you have a good top frame? Do you want to BUY a top (sewn material) and install it yourself? or ?? Do you have an installer selected if you aren't going to install it yourself? Discuss with your upholstery installer and then come back here and be more specific with your questions and we can likely help you. If you were in Huntsville AL area and wanted to know where to go I could point you to an installer... but Where are you? -

There can be problems other than rust and wear. Do the side rails line up perfectly like in this picture?

that's a very low mileage car with only 20K miles on it in 65 yrs~~ Besides the top and pads, your top may also need the weatherstripping pieces. I've replaced all this before on Corvettes, but never owned a Trifive convertible, so I'm unsure who is the best source. You could look into Danchuk, Ecklers, Woody's, and CARS as places to start. CARS probably has everything you need for sure as they've been around the longest...Comment

It's actually https://carsinc.com/ for the website.
The original name was 'Can Am Restoration Supply (C.A.R.S.) started by two enthusiasts. They are located in Michigan right on the Canadian border, thus their original name as they had business locations on both sides of the border.Comment

Who was that from? It's been quite a while since I purchased all that stuff.. but I do know there are several pieces of weather stripping on the top.. It sounds like you're getting all the parts you need..
PS. I've only bought all that stuff for a couple of Corvettes, which are much smaller tops than a '55 BelAir convertible......Comment
