Does this look right? I can't remember how these panels meet. Does the package tray sit on or under these panels?

I thought 71-2 had cloth side panels and 73-4 had the plastic ones?

They had plastic. I think the Coronet's were vinyl or cloth.

Here's a picture of the original and the reproduction. The original was crumbling and chalky.

73 and 74's have plastic. My pakage tray is under both. Not sure on the 72's
 
my package tray went in before the side panels when I took it apart. that's how I put it back together
 
tray underneath...at least at the St. Louis plant.

The 73-74 s.e. charger has a cardboard with material on top plastic is on the hard top cars .

I love those fat tire minibikes. I have a few. I just need a Charger
 
Yes the mini bike is a 1969 Montgomery Wards bike. It belonged to my late brother. It cruised around Long Beach back in the day. I will someday restore it. I've had it running mealtimes over the years. But it needs a complete redo.

Not to hijack, but I have a concern about this. I ordered a headliner and sail panels from Legendary for my 73 SE which took over a year to supply. It was NOS material. I know you are correct about the cardboard sail panels for the SE model. Its just dawned on me that they have supplied me the wrong sail panels (plastic for the hard top instead of cardboard for the SE). I should be able to change over the material to my cardboard backing from the plastic, but my concern is whether there is enough material to cover the SE sail panel? In my case, its not just a case of checking it myself as I don't have access to the car at the moment. The material was a nightmare to get hold of, so would rather avoid going back to Legendary if I don't have to. Thoughts please?
 
Last I checked there's no plastic panel that fits you might want to double check
