I am considering buying a parts car with a seemingly intact top. The top on my '66 LCC has broken a few pieces and I was wondering if it would be better to replace the broken pieces or to swap the frames. I can get the car for fairly cheap and if a swap would be better I'd just buy this parts car. Here are a couple vids of the trunk and engine bay.

The car is pretty roached but the top would probably be worth more than what I'd pay for the car.
Replacing top frame?

Re: Replacing top frame?
I’ve got a front header piece with the cover if you need one. Bought for my old convertible and never swapped it.

Re: Replacing top frame?
I’m not sure what all I’ll need. I know I will need at least the passenger side of the piece pictured.
