Anyone know if you could get a painted (black) roof in place of a vinyl roof in 68?

 I believe I am correct in that you could not on a Charger, but it was available on Coronets and Darts, probably some other models also. Option code 292 (two tone paint).

Found this picture and was wondering if anyone has painted their roof, maybe a flat black?

Interesting idea but poorly done, I wouldn't do it but then it's not my car.

I'll bet somewhere out there, someone has put spray-on bed liner on the roof of their Charger.  :scratchchin:

 My 69 road runner came from the factory with a R-4 red body and a black painted top . Pretty rare option .

I restored a 440 6 pak 69 Roadrunner that was Y2 with X9 black painted roof. Rare as far as I know. LEON.

I have a 69 Swinger B7 with a white painted roof.

Do those Roadrunner's have trim separating the roof paint from body paint?

Yes - All the painted roof option cars used the vinyl top trim.

Some yrs ago, one of my cars when I bought it had a painted roof,  :pity:  it felt goofy and wrong, I put vinyl top on it, but what do I know, as much as I love sassy grassy, lime, etc they just feel wrong to me on 68s & 69s, but that my head, I vote put a top on it. :yesnod:
