A question

I know you guys are probably thinking I have no common sense when I ask this but I have to. Was there ever a Sunroof option for a Standard Firebird? Mine has one and it leaks very badly when it rains outside it might as well be raining inside my bird too. If there was an option for it does anyone know where I can get the correct gaskets, seals and everything for it? I have tried multiple things to seal it right now I have stopped 95% of the leaking with a ton of silicone. But I want it to be right and work properly, this is step one for me of fixing it, is to find all the leaking body problems then fix them first before any other body work is done.

Re: A question

do you really want to keep the sunroof? If not, pull it out, and weld in a section of roof from any wrecked hard-top third gen. Also grab the headliner while you're at it.
