tonkatracker ◊ 2011-11-12 08:07	It looks like the section over the drivers head is removable to me...
Ford_Guy ◊ 2011-11-12 09:20	It has the "full" door, not the convertible doors. I don't know the proper term to describe it.
tonkatracker ◊ 2011-11-12 13:07	yeah I see that now, I didn't notice the window frames before. Looking at some brochures it seems that the roof was painted white like the top on these 76+ models, which is what messed me up.
Ford_Guy ◊ 2011-11-12 22:26	It threw me off at first too until I saw the seam between the back cover and the front door frame.
