RE: More Convertible top questions.

If you remove the chrome trim with the snaps, you will expose a pressed steel strip which holds the rear window to the body. They are completely separate, allowing you to remove the trim and paint the car while leaving the rear window in place. I have a 65 B body and I assume that they are the same for other B’s. As I said in an earlier post, be very careful to protect the paint when removing either the trim or the pressed steel strip.

Here's another question...do I understand it correctly that the "snap strip" where the boot snaps on, does NOT hold the rear of the top to the body? I'm looking at paint soon and want to remove the snap strip if possible.

I've done a '63 dart gt. It wss pretty easy I thought. The rear window is very easy on a dart. It unzips, and just the screws on the trim on the botom hold it on.

Has anyone actually replaced their own top ? I'm wondering what's involved with replacing just the rear window.
