No not right know , No $$$$ . I have most of the assembly but no latches or back window. Whats a top run for these things ? ball park.....

What year did the latches change? I have a pair of 62 vert chrome latches still screwed to the rusty frame out behind the garage. They are extras from when I had my 62 vert. I sold it with the nicer ones on it.
