85 T top interchangeability

Our local pick n pull has an 85 berlinetta that has great t-tops and complete parts, but they look different than the parts for my 85 z28. example, the
Berlinetta tops are more curved near the windshield. Anyone know if all these
parts are interchangeable?

thanks,

Russ

Re: 85 T top interchangeability

There is a possibility that the T-Tops at the salvage yard are C & C Tops. It is my understanding that front to back at center bar the C&C Tops are shorter. I believe that I read on here somewhere that the C&C TOps are more curved. There is definitely two different tops made, factory Fisher tops and C&C tops. I would bet that that is why they are looking different.
