New top installed on the 70 300 Vert

[1970300vert]

Had a new top installed on the 70 300 vert. It’s a shame the previous owner must have had something under the well and broke the glass. Does anyone make a correct mopar branded top? I’m so blessed to have found this one. One owner 40k miles 300.

Whoa, beautiful car! Junk in the trunk will break the rear glass.

Yes the owner said they didn’t have anything in the trunk in that area but I beg to differ lol. This is my 3rd 300 I currently have and none of the others have that problem lol

@polara71 is probably the go to guy for this. Maybe @david hill too.

When I bought my 300 'vert, I found a folding chair in that space. That was ironic because the seller warned me not to put anything there.

Convertible tops , Boots and well liners

I have been looking for some new parts for the newest convertible and one of the places I had reached out to was Hydro-E-Lectric. I insist on the original material for the top, well liner and boot. The boot MUST have the clips and NOT the snaps that so many ruin their cars with. They e-mailed me...

Thank you for the info. The well liner was in perfect shape so we left that alone. I was just curious if anyone made the original top with the factory stamping on the glass. The top that was installed has the original material just the glass markings are now on the left corner and are not marked with the factory markings.

when the top gets replaced the glass window gets replaced as well. the glass is bonded to vinyl which is fitted separately than the top. my top guy told me the top & back glass has to be cut to match when installing.
ive never noticed any markings on the back glass - my 300 convert is in winter storage so i cant check it at the moment.

a glass rear window can shatter if it isnt cut properly to match the top; this can happen if only the top is replaced but not the back glass

As far as quality @Legendary Auto Interiors is one of the best. Have both the top and the boot on my 69 300 convertible. Glass breakage is usually caused by items left in the well liner or in the trunk. Here are a couple of photos.
