I need help identifying a C2 hardtop. The top has no rear window brackets and does not have the side notches. The date code is unreadable due to over active stainless steel polishing. It came from a '63 serial #429 (original?).

Re: C2 Hardtop
The Auxiliary Hardtop for 1963-1964 models had three distinct designs.
Design One: At the startup of 1963 production the auxiliary hardtop had a notch cut in the bottom, each side, to give greater clearance above the door. This design was present until approximately March 1963.
Design Two: For cars built in approximately April, May and June 1963 the notch in the auxiliary hardtop is not present.
Design three: For cars built approximately near the end of June 1963 until the end of 1963 production and all 1964 production the notch in the auxiliary hardtop is not present and rear window reinforcing brackets are present at the upper center and lower center of the rear Plexiglas.
The job number and color is under the trim. This will help in trying to see if it's original to the car.
