t-tops, just some wicked glare. But it's got the thick rubber where the passenger window meets the t-top.

Well if you zoom you can kinda tell it has a seam. But this guy just needs to contact the seller and tell us if it is a T-top car.

Well, apparently, he does still have it, BUT he told me up front when I asked if there were any problems that there's noise coming from the motor and the air's not cold - probably needs a recharge. He said he thinks it's a lifter. What would that cost to fix?

T-Tops.


The thick rubber on the outside gives it away. Dont miss out on a good deal.

lifters dont really get "fixed" they can be rebuilt.

Might as well just buy new ones and some hardened pushrods while your at it.

I will do the labor just buy me some food, etc.

Get some LS7 Lifters and Chomeoly pushrods from TSP.

If your fixing the lifter, just your time, cost of lifters, gaskets, and oil. You have to pull the intake/heads to get to em so its not cheap. But if he 'thinks' its a lifter, he may well be wrong, lifters don't usually just fail. However if the A/C doesn't work, the compressor may be going out and making noises so that may be it. Oh, and def. a t-top car, no doubt about it, whoever said targa... come on, who would do a targa with a stock ride height, 16in wheel car?
