You can install the other top in CO. It's a half day job to get it roadworthy to drive home.

Man.....go get that thing!

I'm sure you could recoup a fair amount by selling off the motor/trans/rear axle/etc.

Also, it looks like it might have pop-out windows? If so you could swap the side/rear doors onto your van.

Ah.....didn't notice yours was a slider. I don't think you can do that without extensive body mods.

Rear doors likely have pop-outs as well and those would be an easy swap.

Yes, on a 95 they do. I think I might rob some parts off the 95, sell it off and fund your project. You could easily get enough for it to do a CCV top I would think.

I had a similar 95 Chateau and loved the stock interior. If the seats are in good shape you might find yourself falling quickly in love with them. I did.

for behind the driver front door window: VW21601L. dimensions: 44 1/4" x 22". I used this one cause it mimicked the shape of the oem passenger window for that location best.

for behind the window above: VW21611L. dimensions: 56 7/16" x 22.5".

for behind slider/barn doors I had these jotted down.

VW21601R. dimensions: 44 1/4" x 22".
VW21611R. dimensions: 56 7/16" x 22.5".
VW21599R. dimensions: 56 1/4" x 22 3/4".

there are lots of other options/sizes from crl, but these ones were the closest to the size to the oem windows for the passengers vans that I could find.

crl's website kinda sucks, but you can find most all their stuff here: https://www.dkhardware.com/van-windo...&f_price_price=-

im sure you could find a good alternative for your slider as well.

if you had non window rear doors id seriously consider these if theres room where the e-series windows would go. they are about an inch bigger both in width and height. seems like it would be a good way to keep airflow through the van both parked and driving. seriously surprised theres nothing like this for e-series.

for comparisons sake...
