Abstract
A hard-top vehicle has a front-roof part, a rear-roof part, which is provided with a fixed rear window, lateral main links for moving the front-roof part and rear-roof part, and lateral vehicle pillars which are connected to the main links. The rear window is provided with a frame so that it can be pivoted relative to the vehicle pillars. The frame is provided laterally in each case, in its top region and its bottom region, with arresting elements. For arresting purposes and for a clamping connection of the rear window to the vehicle pillars, clamping elements act on the arresting elements. The clamping elements are arranged on the vehicle pillars or on parts which are connected to the vehicle pillars. The clamping elements are provided with actuating devices arranged on the vehicle pillars or on parts which are connected to the vehicle pillars.
