I just noticed it looks like A pillar trim from notch will work for convertible. I removed a set from 67 notch that the uppers broke upon removal.
You can see how my vert corner pieces fit in A pillar trim and only has one mount hole.
If i cut right above the upper mount hole, I think its a perfect match.
Ill post more pics

That's pretty well known. All hardtop A-bodies from 67 to perhaps the end of A-body production, but certainly through '69 can provide them.
 
Really? Ive never heard that before, but then again some people say Ive got my head stuck up my arse lol
Hopefully this thread/pics will help another vert owner out
 
Yep, interior a-pillar trims is one of very few hardtop parts that were cut to fit the vert. Stainless belt molding below quarter window is another.
I think 67 was the only year that the plastic a-pillar trim in vert was vacuum metallized chrome.
 
One thing I noticed was it looks like factory simply cut the vert ones. There is part # on my notch ones just abv top mount hole. Nothing on vert

I don't know for sure but... One might find that part number varies slightly in color keyed parts.
Plastic to be metallized is molded in base gray or white, so those may or may not have a part number. From what little I know about it, white is virgin material, gray contains some amount of regrind material.

The convertible ones were chrome but since mine didn't look good after I had them redone we painted all the interior windshield trim to match the interior and I actually think it looks better, plus it doesn't reflect the sun
