    Oh no I bought another one 1970 Newport Convertible

    Yes passenger side door. I went in to fix the window motor. I found the tag and a bunch of broken window glass. They probably did a window when they changed front ends and tossed it in there.

    The trim was in the other convertible. It is looking like I might have and extra set of hardtop trim. I'm still in the process of sorting everything out. I did find an extra instrument cluster.
