Bill on the 63 Fury convert that molding is held on by the screws that go 
thru the snaps. Under the molding are sheet metal strips that hold the back 
of the top using a different set of screws.

We may be talking about the same piece. Mine looks like it's chrome
trim ~ 1-1.5" wide w/ a bunch of snaps for the boot. Can anyone else
confirm this trim does or doesn't hold the top down on a 65 Coronet?
