The top mechanism from any DeSoto, Dodge and Chrysler 6 from 42-48 should fit. I am not sure about Chrysler 8 or IMperial bodys. Plymouth will not fit due to smaller body dimensions.

@ed-katzenberger thank you very much, I notice a difference between the 1942 and the 1946-48 front fenders and doors.  So the windshield top and convertible assembly are the same as 1942?
