Dandy,

Is it possible you have the rear section of a California Coupe and not a Roadster? Below are pix of a Coupe taken from the motoringinvestments.com site. Note how there is no soft top or tonneau cover:

Dandy,

Is this higher part located directly where the rear of the hard top, below both side and the rear glass, would contact the car?  Is this higher part meant to keep water out of the car with the hard top installed?
