Yes I need the top frame and the bows.....My convertible sedan just has the front section back to just behind the front seat..... I need all pieces going to the back from there... I might spend the rest of my life looking for these.. Thanks, Mike Edited December 3, 2019 by Our Buicks (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCHinson Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 I don't know about any Cadillac top parts but have a suggestion for you. I would do some research. It is possible that those parts are shared with other GM Division cars. For example, The 1937 Fisher Body Service Manual indicates that in 1937 the Cadillac 70 Series Style 37-7029 shares the same top with the Buick 80 Series Style 37-4829. Perhaps the later 1938, 1939, and 1940 top assemblies are also used in both Buicks and Cadillacs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alsfarms Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 (edited) Mike, We all get caught needing parts that we just can't find. I would encourage you to network among Cadillac, Buick and even Olds, Pontiac and Chev owners who are also restoring a convertible sedan. Where you have part of a top, you have a start point. I would borrow anything, reproduce the top then make modifications to fit your application. I have a 35-36-37 Ford convertible sedan top assembly, but may not be similar enough to duplicate for your Cadillac. Good luck, be creative and don't give up....

B Jake Moran Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Have you tried the CLC Forum and I assume you are a CLC Member. Post in the Self Starter. With all due respect to the AACA Cadillac sub forum here, few folks who network in those circles visit here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B Jake Moran Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 You may have to have it fabricated from a known good top frame. Not impossible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
