I want to make a removable hard top to fold into the bed and double as seats

I used to have a '64 Bonneville convertible but..... honestly.....I never considered such a parts combination. Oh, I liked my Pontiac, too.

One trick to customize some of the '61 to '66 Fords (slicks) is to use a '63 Mercury grille. If you're set on something like that, I'm thinking that a '64 LeMans grille would fit better, maybe on a GMC with its' quad headlights.

This isn't anything that I would do, but you asked for suggestions.

i don't have a picture but a lowered convertible 2wd longbed with a toneau cover to match the color of the paint would be cool

Hideaway headlights are always cool.
