t-top conversion

I just picked up an 88 gt 2 dr. hardtop and was wondering if anyone ever attempted to convert over to t-tops? Is it possible?

Possible yes but even though people charge a premium for T-tops it's just cheaper to buy a t-tops stang

yes, you could convert. i dont' know of anybody who's tried it. bear in mind that you essentially have to replace the entire roof, which is a lot of cutting, grinding, welding, body work, paint, etc. and if the fit is wrong, you're just fucked.

also, bear in mind that you will be sacrificing a great deal of chassis stiffness, so if you intend to drop a big motor in this car i would scrap the idea. it'll just twist itself into a prezel.

that's all just my opinion, tho

tinsnips and cellophane - you could do it in ten minutes!

It is possible, but you'll end up with a car as rigid as a wet dishrag and useless on the strip. It will never be fast but at least you'll have a wet ass every time it rains.

ROFL great just great now my side is split!

Holly crap it's Big Dan!! Where have you been man??

I remeber finding a site a while back where a guy cut the roof off a t-top car and put it onto his solid roof car. What a hack job it was, not to mention he probably lost all resale value.

yeah, go with a sunroof kit if that's what you want.
I hear the sunroof kit is easier to do, and is better overall.

I've just been out having fun. Finals were tough and then winter break was crazy. There are no friends like old friends - remember that.

T-tops are sick. I can see your affinity and desire for one, but if you are set on getting them the best thing to do is to just buy a car wit them. Then replace the weather stripping.

wow, altered beast AND joust.
I see the rumors were true.
