Roof interchange for B Bodies
« on: January 06, 2007 - 01:07:11 PM »
Can anyone tell me if a 1970 Plymouth Roadrunner roof will interchange with a 1968 Dodge Coronet, both being 2 door HT's ? :dunno:

My 68 Coronet roof has some rust issues underneath the vinyl top. Rather than replacing the roof, has anyone dealt with rust beneath a vinyl top before and reinstalled a new top? How critical is it? Can I encapsulate the rust, repair any holes with epoxy resign and put a new top on? Or should I suck it up and replace it with a rust free roof?

Thanks
Jeff

I know 68-70 RR -GTX- 2 Dr Satellite alll good. I Dont remember but I the the Bee has the same roof. If yur really thinking of switching I can look up the facts on Monday at the shop. BTW I think I got a Satellitte roof out in the yard someplace.

Hey thanks. Yeah, if you could look that up I would appreciate it. Also check on that roof and let me know what you would want for it. Where are you? I'm in Spartanburg, SC.
Thanks

Jeff, just as I thought. RR GTX BEE Coronet R/T Same roof For 68-70 Slightly different if you got the pop out rear windows -but that still works with some mods.  I do hav a roof here that would be very workable!  BUT I'm in SE Wisconsin and shiiping a roof would be  :money:  :money:  :money:  :money: Best of luck on your car!  :thumbsup:

Thanks for the info on the roof interchange. Yeah, shipping would be expensive, but atleast now I know what to search for locally.
Thanks again! :bigsmile:
