Yep early Chevy from the 60's the one on the left is 64 ford galaxy 500.
And I am thinking the bottom one too ill make my own out of wood then cover it in leather and attach the chrome this way I know the fit the old hole and don’t have to modify the door

Dang, CAT!
You goin' completely Old School on us with your LUV?
Those T-tops really bring back the days when everyone was doing them.
Were these Regal T-Tops?
I cant remember which ones were the small ones everyone used backk then?

yes the t-top came out of a cutlass, regal I think 75’, I found a place that sell NOS stereos and equipment and then for the roof console I have these c-box made cassette holders they come apart or are stackable and the eq which will go in to top console also and here is a pic of the t-tops they are about a 1/ to 1/2 to wide so ill chop the top about 2 inches and then they will fit perfect. also redid the heater cover and put new chrome on it

I used silver leaf from micelle’s craft store. just apply the sizing(glue) wait 10/30 minuets then lay the silver leaf on and brush off extra leaf with a brush it's not perfect but looks real nice almost factory
