so i want to convert my car to a hard top. i don't know how much harder it would be than a convertable. and i don't know if i could even make it work. but i think it would be great. i don't know what it is about hardtops but i love them. and when i say hardtop i mean it doesn't have a post when the front and back windows are rolled down.
A hardtop would be cool. If you didnt plan on driving it in any bad weather, it would be fairly east to do.
I had given a hardtop some thought in the past, your biggest issue will be to redo the glass, as you probably know. I was thinking making the rear 1/4 glass roll down as well. having the two pieces seal up wont be that bad,... there are alot of companies that make windowseals that i think can be adapted fairly easy. then there is the issue of making the front glass stable.redoing the runs, and the remaining part of the side channel should take care of that. now hurry up and get after it, that way I wont go doing it on #3
hey come on do i look like i know how to do body work but i still would love to give it a shot when my car isn't my daily driver and can have it off the road for a few years.
Chip Foose, just did a t-bird convert.conversion. he had no top or windows. he did his new t-bird the same way. made a fair weather car...frank...
