It would be nice to have rear window sill sheetmetal instead of purchasing quarter panels and roof to repair the rear window seal area. Trying to get a correct compound curve for the upper portion of the window sill is going to be tough. So if any of you are replacing your roof and it has a good rear window sill area let me know. Thanks

It is avaliable, I ended up making mine 6 inches at a time across the front and back before I met the owner of Vintage Camaros at the local swap meet. Great guy to talk with, he actually works on the cars and sells parts. He is making a piece that has the trim moulding tabs attached also to repair that area. Tell him I sent ya..

That is a great product. I remember having to redoing most of my old hardtop, would have loved to have had this part then. Plus, the trim molding tabs included. Do you know how much he will be asking?

It was cheap, seems like less than 50 bucks for the top piece.

Wow, that is one heck of a deal. I can't count how much time I spent trying to fix mine, I would have paid double that to get my time back.

I was mostly done by the time I found him, he said he has them made up in advance, and I guess they go up onto the roof about 1/4 inch or so if I remember correctly. I still need to get the mold rivets and the adapter for my stud welder so I can weld them on my car.

Sounds like you have the worst of it out of the way. Send some pics when you get done.
