Looks like aftermarket early first generation. I bought one of these in 1968 for my 56 Corvette.

It looks like a c1 Plasticon hard top. Only 2 people can decide on the value of this top. You and the buyer.

It doesn't look at all like a Corvette top to me.
It can't be for a 61-62 or 63-67 because the rear edge is straight across, there's no notch to fit over the body peak line that runs down the center of the rear deck in those years. It can't be for a 53-55 or 58-60 either, because the shape of the side openings looks different than that of the 53-55 side curtains, or the 58-60 door glass.
I'm thinking maybe a late 50's early 60's Austin-Healey 100-4 or 3000?

I'm not convinced what phil had was what Redbird shows. If you look at his '56 in post #12, the lower edge of the top is essentially straight along the back deck and side, until it turns upward along the back edge of the window glass. Post 1 photos show a pronounced downward "ear" before it goes up along the window.
