Holland, eh? Definitions are in order such that we're on the same track. Soft top in America means convertible, vinyl top means a fabric insert glued to the metal roof. I assume you mean the latter:
If true, the "soft top" or vinyl as we call it is glued to the roof meaning its near impossible to remove it and replace it using the same material. Normally its simply stripped off and replaced with new material after the roof sheet metal is repaired, cleaned, primed and painted. Replacement vinyl tops are generally available stateside for your '72. NPD's catalog lists it as 71-73 in black, white, or buckskin color $56.95.
