Personally i like the look of t-tops and the semi convertable effect is pretty cool... I could never purchase a convertable for several reasons... anyhow, I was in such a hurry when I got my third gen, I bought what was available... an '84 hard top T/A... so my question is here: how expensive would it be to get cutouts in the roof, appropriate weather stripping laid down and T-Tops installed? This is mostly hypothetical since I don't have an acetylene torch or the money to pay someone to do it...

an ungodly amount....better of selling your car spending a few grand on some strippers and buying one with t tops

Just get a new car, because its gonna be expensive however you do it. Best way would be to cut the roof off a T-Top car and stick it on yours.

one eyed jack is totally correct, the painter for the body shop i work for, did this a few years back to a 91Z 350 it was in a storm where the roof of the barn fell on the car, so he went to the junk yard and picked up a section off a ttop car and welded it in. it looked original and great. that is the only REAL way to get this done, other wise you will be looking at alot of hassles. you will be better off selling your car infavor for a ttop car.
