Default 65 vert parts question

I am restoring a 65 convertible and have a panel that will need replaced due to rust. I do not know the name of it and have tried searching NPD and such for it and cannot find the name so that I can order it.

The part in question is the narrow body piece between the trunk and the convertible top. The front portion of the trunk lid touches it, and the rear window on the convertible top is attached to it, and the boot area where the top drops into is in front of it, and it spans from rear quarter to rear quarter. It appears to be 2 pieces, an upper and a lower. I need the top/upper piece that the buttons of the boot cover attaches to, and if my description is not good enough I can take photos tomorrow.

I just know that those more seasoned veterans will know the name and save me another 2 hours of searching... Thanks.

Not sure of the name but the part number is 40310, called out in the '68 Weld and Sealant FAM as "Panel Assembly, Upper Back".

Do not believe that part is reproduced.

Glazier/Nolan lists that as the Deck Panel, p/n G10224.

Wow, this helps so much. Decided to go with CJs for $51 and free shipping. Thanks!

Now, if they just made the same piece for the 71-73 convertibles, I'd be ecstatic!
