I've seen at least two on the forums. One Camaro and one TA.

you could with some subfram connectors, but targa tops are just more of a pain in the *** to me. plus there are those nice holders for the t tops in the trunk, but its your call good luck

I've thought about it also, but it's best to have something to hang onto wen the t-tops are off. At least.. something for passengers to hang on to. =p
