It could be a cutlass top.

This puzzle could be solved by doing some measuring at a car show. Still would have liked to got a look at that conversion. I am sure there would have been an installer tag somewhere in the door jam.

As a side note, every coach converted car has an RPO code noting it's a conversion car on either the build sheet or the service option sticker in the glove box. GM did it to cover them against any warranty claim on items they didn't provide.

Oh, so you want straight cuts? Sawzall and concours restoration are on opposite ends of the scale...

Same problem as the Eldo. Good size rear quarter windows that butt up against the side windows, making the sides of the top start too far rearward for our cars. While top material could certainly be added, I'm concerned about sealing against the quarterpanel and the side window.

I've been known to take a tape measure to the local cruises for just that purpose. Smile
