Re: vinyl roof availability



All the 2 door hardtops used the same roof stamping and glass parts in 1964 and 1965, so no difference 440 or 500 is 
what I take from Bill's data.

"In 1965 I bought a new Dodge Coronet 500, red with black vinyl top with a 426 street wedge/4-speed from Dodge City 
in Spokane, Washington." 

See  https://1962to1965mopar.ornocar.com/mmo52013.html

The link is 8 years old so who knows if the owner still has the car or has the same email, but you can try to email him 
with your question about the trim piece at the bottom of the C pillar.

Thanks,
Gary H.
