I went to the body shop today t check on my car and I was bsing with the owner(my uncles friend) and said I wanted to T Top my car, I first said it to are what he would say and becusse we were talking about my car. He said if I find a kit or find a T Top roof hell do it. I always wanted to T Top my car and becusse they are a rarity to find or see, so I'm contemplating weither or not to T Top my coupe, I kinda want to now becusse I have the chance to have it done for free it would just cost me the price of a T Top roof. I know I'm gonna lose some structural strength if I get the T Tops. So I don't know what I want to do.

I had t-tops on an 83 GT and they leaked frequently. But it was fun cruizing with em off.
Btw I sent you a pm about info for paint and install of Saleen side skirts and door fillers from your friend. Pm me back.

I would NOT do it at all.Its not just the roof that make you lose strenght the car has bracing everywhere throughout the car when its a t-top car.Itll never be right and if you get an aftermarlet setup itll look just hideous.
Leave the damn thing alone,get it done and drive that shit ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)

yea, leave it alone. It may look cool with the tops off, but it won't be cool if it starts leaking and/or if you lose structural strength. keep it clean and simple ![[Wink]](wink.gif)

I used to want t-tops also, but decided against it. You could do what I did and have a power moon roof put in!

Hardtop is the most desireable top ever made! Most rigid, no leaks, etc!
