look in you local junk yards and swap-meets.

I did it.
Have a 65 Sedan and I implanted a 62 Ragtop. There is an article in June 98 VW Trends that walks you through the process. Since I am a chick and do not weld, I found the perfect guy to do it (Okay I BEGGED) and it cost about $250 for that install and took 4 hours and it is DAMN PERFECT.
The Clip cost me (and this is average) about $450. I asked a lot of people about this and discovered that the common thread is to install a clip.... many are not pleased with the aftermarket clips.
I hope that helps.

Yes,
If done correctly, they work great! The curvatures of the roofs are the same. I installed a '56 ragtop section on my '72 Super.
There's a couple pics on my site down below my sig. Good luck!
