Have an "early" top available for sale. Was on my car replaced by a "late" top. My car is a 74 2L and this new "late" top fits as expected.

Top is clean and newly sprayed. Corners are not chipped. Comes with all mounting hardware, front latches, rear setting blocks and the SS trim for the new rear seal. Also has the side aluminum tracks for the top door seal. Front facia is also decent. Rear seal is new from 914 Rubber.

More pics are available if needed.

Asking $275 complete. Shipping is tough so pick up only. I'm located East of Toledo Ohio.

Holy Toledo! Seems like a decent deal.


So, what are the differences on the 'early' top, as opposed to a 'later' top? Is there fitting issues?

Suggest you use the Search function within World to find the answer to that question and many other questions concerning the Early vs Late top differences. I can't do the topic justice. I did have some issue with the roll up windows not meeting the seal on the top. There may a dimensional issue here.

It’s enough of a difference that you want to use the right one.

73 and later has a different top, which matches the new doors. From my experience there was a 1/4” gap between the top and the top of the window, when using an early top on a late car.
Same seals on late top, removed the gap.

Great info, thanks gents! This topic should be on a different post, but thanks regardless.


Good luck on the sale, North Coast Jim! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)
