Cabriolet Rear Window Frames
 

How does one tell the difference between an original 68C rear window frame and the currently available reproduction? I suspect the edges on an original are more rounded but I really don't know and would like to know the difference. Thanks.

I am sure someone knows the difference. Please post a reply. Thanks.

If I understand your description, you could be right. I have a '30 68B which ,I believe, has the same rear window as the '31 68C. I have both a LeBaron Boney repro and 2 originals. The originals have a slight rounded, convex on the face of both the inner & outer frames while the repro is flat across the faces of both frames. The radius of the corners is the same.

Thanks Ray, exactly what I was interested in finding out.
