You can try to polish it out, and maybe get lucky,
but from your description, it sounds like the same thing that happened to my 68
convertible, it was right through the plastic. I am not sure of the cause,
one of my car club associates told me that it was a U.V. reaction in the
plastic, and is permanent.

Subject: IML: Restoring convertible top
plastic window; Help needed
I am working on one of my non-Imperials that
has an original convertible top circa 1971. The top has been folded down
and stored in the top well while the hardtop generally remained on. It
is in amazdngly good condition and still fits well. My only problem is the
slight, but noticable fading (actually "browning") of the clear plastic
window. Has anyone ever founf a way to restore the clear plastic?
I think I had seen something advertised in JC Whitney years ago, but never
needed it and was not convinced that it would work. I am willing to put
some effort into restoring it instead of replacing it as it would be nice to
retain the original if I can.
Thanks,
John - Atlanta
