Question: Do any of you who own 64 Impala hardtops display them with the vinyl roof? (Just curious).

The one flaw with the WCPD Chevy's, the vinyl roofs do not fit well. I display mine without.

Thanks Bob. I've tried to get the top to fit snug, but doesn't seem to, so I've just left it off.

Agree. I picked Meadow Green for nostalgic reasons and display it without the vinyl top.
