Basically, the whole upper window channel.  I'd need a few inches of the roof, the vertical part where the molding clips screw into, and then the channel lip where the glass rests.  I know AMD makes that upper roof bow, but I'm not sure if that comes with the lip and vertical area the clips screw into.  I can't get a good picture to see it anywhere.  My Charger has some serious rot and I can make one, but would rather buy one that's done instead of going through that fab work.  Maybe a donor panel only thing too.  Any thoughts on someone who may make it?

As I said, I can make it but would rather find something already made.  I think It'll be a donor or have to be fabbed up.  Can't seem to find anything out there.  With all the rotted tops on these cars, maybe AMD will put this in the cue at some point. :scratchchin:

A friend of mine's Dad got one a while back for his 70 which is exactly what I need, and he said he got it from Charger Specialties.  But nothing there.  Just those sail panel patches.  Maybe they discontinued it or something :rotz:

Just a little persistence and ye shall be rewarded:  http://www.autobodyspecialt.com/  They got it, and for only $91 bucks!  This is who you were thinking of Tan Top.  Contains about 2" of roof and the channel.  Exactly what I needed.  Should be here in a few days.   :2thumbs:

I bought the one from Auto Body Specialties several years ago, I actually ended up getting a second one since the first one didn't fit.  The second one wasn't any better unfortunately.  I ended up making my own in the end.

Hopefully the quality has improved.
