every single 350 car i looked at had t-tops but one, so they are plentiful. if your going to get a t-top 350, the first thing you are gonna want to do is weld on some subframe connectors.

I had a hard time finding one here in western Canada. Found one in WA though. And I'd heard that the didn't exist (even a guy at Pontiac thought so until he dug deeper). But they definitely do exist.

Not at all hard to fiend till 90. My 89 L98 has t-tops. There are a $hit load of then out there in pre-90 cars.

after (and including) 1990, t-tops were no longer availible with the 350. a certain number of 92' formula firebirds with the 350 were made with t-tops, however. apparently you had to order the car with black "cross lace wheels". i got this info from the "Illustrated Buyer's Guide : Firebird" by John Gunnel. finding a pre 90' with the 350/t-top combo shouldnt be too much of a problem, though.
