It's certainly not an oval window. _________________ “If you care for a thing long enough, it takes on a life of its own, doesn't it? Mending old things, preserving them, looking after them – on some level there's no rational grounds for it.”

Clean ones bring 600 - 1000
Damaged, bent and rusted ones 100-200 tops to the right buyer
Its too easy to build a nice one from a pair of late model vents grafted into a sedan lid than to spend too much money on reworking one.
Plus there is (or was) now a company that will punch correct convertible vents into Sedan lids.
ISP sells the vents alone for 45 bucks a pair as well
