The vinyl will/could be tough to remove...then getting the subsurface extremely smooth.... 
That could be a task....!!
Of course it's an 89 vehicle...for transport...& some cosmetic looks.... 
You could check w/some body shops to talk w/techs...as to their professional thoughts...
But it's up to you as to the quality of job w/tools that you can achieve....  |

Do a Google for vinyl top removal and see what info is available. Most require heat and scraping to remove it all. Then its surface prep to correct/prime/repaint. Very labor intense but do able at home
