I have posted some pics of my roof and its problems. Here is the link (http://www.villagephotos.com/pubbrowse.asp?selected=777361) the website with a few pics.
Does anyone have links or know where I can get a new roof for my 69 Chevelle at. I have called junkyards in my local area with no luck at all.
Thanks

Your link is asking for a name and password.

that is not that bad. My 72 was worse and so is my 70. No-one makes that corner at the base of the window as a separate piece. I've thought that a guy could make a million if he created the dies and stamped those things out. I pieced it in. You could get a pair of quarters and replace it up to the sail panel top seam as well as the full quarter.

You guys are always a day late and a dollar short ;) .... I threw away a perfect roof this summer. Couldn't pay anyone to take it..
Anyway, I agree with the other guys. It looks like your window channels and filler panel are eaten up, not you roof. Pop that glass out and see how bad it really is.

I had to replace a crushed roof on my 70, had some luck finding one for 50 bucks... one man's junk is another's treasure...

ouch, that's in rough shape. I'd look around for a donor roof and build some patches for the quarters, how is the rest of the car?

The rest of the car isn't to bad. I have to fix the bottom of the drivers side fender and a few minor spots... but the rest of the car is pretty solid.
If anyone knows were I might find a roof for a decent price could you please let me know?
Thanks...
