It’s a roof seam that’s leaded, it’s a sign of rusted through, still nice find, worth restoring
@timothyharrison8953

When they were assembled on the line and the top was being finished, the workers knew if it was a vinyl top or regular top. Regular tops had lead to finish and smooth the seam where the "C" pillar meets the top. Vinyl top cars just got plastic filler. This was a vinyl top car and when they removed it, they probably put a new coat of plastic filler in the seam and it's cracked with age.

Wow what a time capsule, right down to the when parked mid 80s period correct cocaine mirror in the console. There may be a stash still in the glove box n trunk that has done a stellar job at keeping the mice damage to a minimum they get one sniff of the devil's dandruff n immediately lost interest in chewing on anything else. Slightly more expensive alternative to mothballs or dryer sheets but 100% effective

For all the people commenting about the Impala/Caprice, they have a '75 for sale at Maple Motors in Tennessee for $15,900! Go to their RU-vid channel, they just put a video up about it the other day and they go over it with a fine tooth comb so you have no surprises and baby did that engine roar! They obviously have a website for additional pics!!! It's also green...

Car likely had a black vinyl top and the rear roof support is a weld which would have been hidden beneath the vinyl. Guys at Graveyard Cars would LOVE to redo one of these.

Possibly, most Charger vinyl tops I've seen have been black. You could try decoding the car's fender tag or maybe ask Mark Worman at Graveyard Cars for guidance? Either way it will be incredible redone. Best of luck and looking forward to any future posts! @@MindofMatter

Nice Charger R/T, but that said it's a minimum $100K restoration done properly. Front rims are original 14" Magnum 500's, however, those are the wrong trim rings.... and just as an example here.... the 'correct' 14" inner lipped trim rings can run $1,000 for 4 that will need work.
