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. 
I'll leave the moral and legal judgments to others. But, to answer your question, the post is spot welded in at the top and bottom. There are three or four spot welds each. The door jamb stamping is different as the hardtop has a slot for the roll up window to meet the door glass. The door glass is different. Hardtop glass is easier to find, so you should be able to trade the post car glass pretty easy. the window seal channel is different too, you will need the hartop pieces. the interior trim along the top of the winodws is different, as is the metal panel that lines up on the inside base of the rear window. Then there are the various small brackets and mounts that are needed to bolt the roll up window regulator to. In summary, its not as easy as you would think to go from post coupe to hardtop. Or vice versa. More likely solution is to log onto AMD and see what sheet metal you can buy to repair the original hardtop and sell off the post car shell.
