You really are a jerkoff sometimes. The man didn't personally insult YOU did he? The man asked a question. Were YOU born knowing everything or did you acquire your vast knowledge over time? When you were first messing with cars, I'd bet that you may have asked questions that someone thought was dumb as ****. Go back to watching reruns of Murder She Wrote.Yeah. It's called ruining a goddamn good lookin car. Sell it to somebody who appreciates it if you don't. Don't be fuckin stupid.

To the OP:
I have wondered for years why automakers made a POST model and a hardtop version of the same basic car. There was no sense to it as far as I can tell, certainly not financial. Why make two different roof skins, two different windshields/A pillars/Interior A pillar covers, wiper arms, doors, side glass for the doors, rear side windows...Rear window too?? GM did it, Ma Mopar did it. Not sure about AMC or Ford.
To do a change like this is a huge undertaking but it is possible. You'd need a donor car since none of the needed parts are being reproduced. People tear down classic cars to what looks like a plucked chicken and seem to get them all back together but this is usually only seen on high value cars. No offense to you but the 65 Dart is not one of them. Don't feel bad...I also have a 65 Dart post model. A buddy has a 64 Valiant post. You can black out the B pillar and window frames and tint the windows to sorta hide the framework. I've seen it done and it does help.
Good luck.
Getting too old and bitter to be helpful? Why insult a guy that simply asks for help?
I'm sure that the majority of enthusiasts prefer a coupe/hardtop style over a post sedan model. If you prefer the post cars, you are one of the few that do.
I owned the car for 10 years and i like the way it looks as it is!! I also like the openness of the non post when the windows are all down. I was just wondering if it was just wondering if it could be done without cutting up the car into a major projectYeah. It's called ruining a goddamn good lookin car.

No easy way. I believe the roof line is different as well. look at the windshield height, the Hardtop I believe is shorter.
that answers my question i thought they looked different but hard to tell from pictures on the net I doant have a non post sitting near mine thanksNo easy way. I believe the roof line is different as well. look at the windshield height, the Hardtop I believe is shorter.
I like them both but prefer the hardtop over the post. I am happy to have an early "A" either way !! sounds like a good question to throw out there !!Getting too old and bitter to be helpful? Why insult a guy that simply asks for help?

Being an old Guy, back in 64' I saw people driving the Post cars because they liked to wear big hats!that answers my question i thought they looked different but hard to tell from pictures on the net I doant have a non post sitting near mine thanks
You must be a passionate man....Angrier than average sometimes and happier than others at other times?
Would this be a major project ? if anyone has done it what parts are required ?
