ABSTRACT:
A convertible top cover is disclosed formed of single piece seamless front and rear panels having adjacent edges secured along an intermediate top frame bow member extending across the passenger compartment. The front and rear panel adjacent edges are secured within a recess in the bow frame member by a retainer member fit into the bow frame member, with a exterior trim covering fit over the retainer member. The intermediate bow member extends alongside and immediately to the rear of the side glass on either side of the vehicle, and a projecting lip formed by a sandwiched sheet metal layer enclosed in the trim covering provides an aerodynamic fairing of the window seal to the rear panel. The separate front and rear panels are of different colored fabric to produce a two tone styling.
