59 sedna & hardtop doors

["Hugh & Therese" <hugtrees@xxxxxxxx>]

59 sedan & four door hardtop doors are quite different.  The hardtop doors
are frameless.  The sedans are fully framed.  The chrome surround on the
glass on the hardtop recesses into the body of the door when opened, the
hardtop's glass moves up and down but the frame within which the glass moves
is always up.

I thought we were talking about hardtop doors between 58 & 59, and cannot
see what the difference between the doors might be but am OK with accepting
there is a difference.  It is more likely that sedan doors between the
57/58/59 bodies will interchange without difficulty than it is that you
could swap a sedan's doors with those of a hardtop.
