Paul,
The top bear a strong resemblance to the tops from Smoothline makes, right
down to that do-hickey in the pillar. I think there is an emblem that goes
there originally to conceal what appears to be a mounting attachment point.
>From the rear photo, I would say the top is actually for '68 and later cars
with the top attached. Smoothline sells these new for around $900 plus
freight and would probably look decent refinshed.
