I finally found the car i want, but it's a hardtop :cry: i always wanted a t-top car, but my question is how much money, and how long would it take to convert it to t-tops??? :confused:

It takes quite a bit of money and you won't have your car for about a month... that's if you do it professionaly. There is a company that does it but I can't remember the name. If I was you I would go with the hardtop, if you ever plan to do major modifications the hardtop is great because you won't have any chassis flex. T-Tops are cool until they fly off, get broken, or leak. Then they become expensive, if the car is a bit older, Hardtop is much safer to go with. That is my take on it anyway. I'm not against t-tops but if I had a choice I would get a hardtop just so I wouldn't have to deal them. Hell most of the coolest Camaros ever were made hardtop for a reason, ZL1, Yenko etc.

there are quite a few t-tops around (more so than convertibles, but still alot of them)
pretty much same price, I would keep looking for what you want, but look for t-tops, a little patience should get you what you want

Thnx guys for your input, thinking of not having my car for a month when i am just getting it makes me feel uneasy, but :sigh: if only a t-top looked like this one in my price range.....

Halfway down there is a parts list, and also i believe the person who posted the parts list (think it is red blur) will do the conversion at a very reasonable price.
