<VV> hardtop definition

[Wrsssatty@aol.com]

<the '57 Nomad in my driveway would disagree.  Nomads are two door hardtop
wagons.

The forward sloping piece is part of the top, not the door.

I think our disagreement here lies in applying contradictory definitions of 
the term "hardtop."  The definition I know and apply is that which can be found 
at:

http://www.seriouswheels.com/car-glossary.htm

to wit; Hardtop--Vehicle with no side B-pillar, meant to have the look of a 
convertible. 

Therefore, because they had a B-pillar, Nomads were not hardtops by this 
definition.  The absence of a fixed window frame on the door is of no consequence 
to this definition of hardtop.
