1962 Starfire rear side windows

Are the rear side windows and window tracks the same in the 1962 Starfire convertible and hardtop?
Thanks...Dennis

I know the tracks are not the same. I don't believe the windows are, either. When you lower a convertible window, they pivot at the forward corner. The rear corner drops down and forward toward the door pillar. With the window lowered, the forward weatherstrip (for the front door glass) is level with the belt molding. Hardtop windows just lower vertically, kinda sorta. I believe convertible windows are smaller.
