Re: [FWDLK] Savoy

["Brendan Sheehy" <desoto@xxxxxxx>]

A sedan's doors have frames around the windows that remain up when the windows are rolled down. A hardtop has no frames.  Hardtops were supposed to be like convertibles only with non-removeable steel tops instead of fabric.

Just to add my 2 cents worth. I have a 1956 Plym Savoy 2 door hardtop
(is the definition of "hardtop" a question as well? It has 2 doors and
is not a convertible) I inherited this from a great aunt who purchased
it brand new in 1956.  This is without question an original owner car
with no modifications.  I hope this helps.
