You will need to find a local auto upholstery shop to fabricate one. There are no pre-made tops for your touring.

Who did you find that makes one for a '27? Once Hampton Coach went bankrupt I was not aware of anyone making interiors or top kits for the older Chevrolets. There are kits for 50s and newer.

He has for 1927 capital tourer
If you get a chance maybe google and have a look they appear to make a lot of different tops for older models.
See if you think that one may fit mine . I am not sure of the differences from year to year.
Thanks

Checked them out. Interesting array of tops they produce. Did note that there was no return on pre-'61 tops so making sure they have the correct patterns is wise.
Maybe you can get dimensions to compare with the top assembly and body size on your '26 Touring. If they match the top should as well.
