i will do the check up and hope it is an original convertible although i might love the coupe too with its aggressive look.

thanks

4b316, thanks for the reply. it looks like an original convertible but the vin is there and i wonder how it could be changed since it is like a stmp in the body. is there any chance to change it? why some one would change it do you think.

i will take some pictures and show it to you as soon as i get them so you can have a look.


Tom, i have not looked for the partial vin# yet it would take some time to remove all of the staff where the p.vin is located.

I think the only way to change it to its original is by getting a roof cut from a donor camaro or firebird 67 to 68 and then fix it on the camaro. i have not been lucky yet to get one but i am looking. let me know if you have any good junk yard link.

thanks again

Hi all,

I have a 68 camaro which was originally Coupe and then been converted to a Convertible. i am not sure of that but the vin number of the car shows it is a coupe. I want to turn it back to its original Coupe, what are your recommendations? I found the top roof from goodmark but the quarter back left and right sides were not included and they are attached to the right and left fenders . They have told me to get a body shell to do the braces first or weld one before i fix the sheet metal as there is no support beneath the metal sheet.
i just have a convirtable camaro and want to convert it to a coupe. What are the parts required? i can buy a new roof and quarter panels, but how will i get the braces near the rear side windows and other braces to fix the roof on top of it.
