Wondering if small post [between front and rear side window]can be removed without alot of trouble. Trying to make a hard top for a 68 Coronet r/t rebody.post appears to be welded in.




Next time look at what you're thinking to do before posting and maybe you won't have to ask. The jamb is different and it's not just the cut for the window. You're going to leave a mess getting the post out unless you can get down in there and grind the welds off without ruining something else. There's a support at the bottom of the inner panel on hardtops that aren't there on post cars, and there's a 10 gauge brace between the top of the jamb and the quarter that you need or you'll crack the quarter by shutting the door. There's probably more that I haven't thought of too.

In short, someone who knows what they're looking at will notice it pretty easily, but I admit people might not be looking for such a bone-headed idea to have played out so you might get away with it.

Since you've admitted doing a rebody, you shouldn't mind going ahead and posting the VIN of the car too, right?
