Hardtop?
Hardtop? does anyone make a hardtop for firebirds/camaros? I want to buy a 98 or better firehawk convertible and i was wondering if there was any hardtops available for it. If there sint then thats just plain retarded!!!
thats really stupid i cant beleive that. I wont accept it. SOMEONE FIND ME A HARDTOP lol! Ok ill make one. LOL if i had the experience i would....i could easily design one. No one? are you sure?
Auctally, I beileve the corvette company in FLordia makes one,I forget there name. but i dont think there sell any parts, you have to have it installed there...Last time i checked, for them to do a corvette was around $12k good luck with that..

seriously tho id like to see what it would look like. Im thinking of that part rk sport made where the back hatch window was smaller
we don't need a hard top. I've driven in the middle of winter and the top doesn't leak and car warms up quick. Might be cool if done right, but I don't want to pay for it nor store it for 9 months a year.
We need the damn 1/4 windows next to the back seat like on the Mustang so we don't have that huge blind spot.

^that could be incorporated in as well. I dont think theres a huge need for one but almost no cars that have them need them. Like i almost bought a 2003 M3 convertible and the hardtop was sooooo much better. It wasnt needed but i think it just makes it feel like a real car. Plus ive heard plenty about a fbody convertible leaking and i hate the way they look inflated when your driving down the highway and i have never seen one that didnt do it including an 02 firehawk. A hardtop is a big improvement in many many ways.
If you dont want to pay for it then you wouldnt have to and as far as storing it, i couldnt imagine it taking up too much space. Have you ever had a jeep? Once you find a place for it, it isnt bad. Do you seriously drive the whole 3 months with the top off? Id leave it on until i wanted the top down much like my t-tops. But i could see the inconvenience in not being able to just drop the top whenever you wanted. But then ahead i always plan ahead so...

Depends upon the winter. Doesn't come down much I guess in Nov - Feb, so that's 4 months. But I really like being able to drop the top any chance I can. I had T-Tops in a prior car, but I love how easy the convertible is.
My 2 f-bodies were fine on the highway. Only time I noticed problems with the top is when I got into triple digits with the top up.

Building a one piece hard top doesn't seem too difficult to me. I want to chop the top on my T-top car and make a new, lower hard top for it.
I talk about ways to make it in this thread.
