That would have to be all custom work. The only hardtop convertibles lately have been the Mercedes Benz SLK230 or SLK 320 or SLK32 AMG, the Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4 Spyder and the Lexus SC430.

It would cost alot of money due to paint, labor, sheet metal, fitting, and not mention all the mechanicals involved...at least an $8k job and possibly more.

Not worth it. Just get the TT Convertible (a rare car).

Post WOW...is that YOUR car?

I love that picture. Is it yours? I notice the car has euro plates but you're in Chicago.

It looks like that Z has a Strosek body kit. I love the way the factory Z looks but every time I see one fitted with a Strosek kit I wonder whether I should seach around and find a place that will sell one to me. Most other body kits look cheesy as hell to me. The only one I think looks amazing is the Strosek.

I would just go for a t-top. A nice compromise.

I have a 93 convertible as well and have been looking to find a custom hard top. Let me know if you find anything.

Here is one around where I live with a hard top not sure if he had it made or not. I'll ask him next time I see him.

Re: custom hardtop or 300zx convert

ASC & Metalcrafters built a 1 off concept 300zx Hardtop Convertible for the 1992 Geneva Auto Show which was also shown in Paris & Detriot.

Information can be found on Facebook by fanning "ASC 300zx Spyder"
