I was at a local salvage yard the other day and saw these on an old 86 Firebird.
Pretty neat looking.
T-tops can either come off or you can just use the latch that is on the rear of the tops and pop it up like a sunroof.
I've never seen these before and I didn't have a camera with me at the time.

 

huh... dude you have to go back and take a pic

 

I'll see if I have time tomorrow. Maybe I'll buy them, but I'd think they'd leak like crazy.

 

C&C make thoses tops.

Its an aftermaket t-top. I have some information some where in my archives....

I was told the frame is special in order to holds these tops.
So my aftermarket t-tops frame will not fit them.

C&C stopped offering them in 1990

 

So those won't fit into a standard T-Top car?

 

I saw them once on a Firebird at a car show.

 

I guess it would be kinda like the mod you can get for your hatchback to pop it up a little bit.

That would be nice though!! For those iffy days where you'd like some air, but don't wanna take the whole top off. Or the days when it's cloudy, and you're not sure if it's gonna let lose.

 

I have those same C&C T-tops on my 84.There differrent from the G.M. t-tops.What shape were the t-tops in.One of the latches on my t-tops is cracked.

 

I onlly messed with the pass side one and the latch that holds the t-top to the car was messed up, was kinda loose and had to finagle with it to get the latch to latch back on, but the latch on the back that pops it up was good. It also seemed like the frame was falling apart.

 

Thats the one i need.The one that pops it open.If your going back.Would it be too much trouble to ask if you could remove them,just the latches on the back that pop it up(Dr&Pass).They bolt to the glass(4 screws).Ill pay you.LMK.Thanks.

 

I can do that. Let me know what tools I need to use to get them off, sizes and whatnot.

 

There 4 Phillips screws that hold it on.2 for the glass( the 2 buttons on the outside of the glass.Those are the caps/Nuts) & 2 on the frame(in the channel)If you remove the 4 phillips screws the entire latch mechanism comes off.I dont think you even need to take off the t-top,but it helps.Thanks again.

 

Not a problem.
What price do you want to pay so I can negotiate down to what you are willing to pay.

 

Id like to keep to $10 or less Shipped

 

I'll see what I can do.

 

Thanks.Not in a hurry though.Just go when you have something else to go for.No big hurry on shipping either.Appreciated......

 

That sounds pretty neat. Post pics!

 

Is this what you meant.Pic 1

 

 

i have thoses ts on my camaro i like them alot

 

WTF, i've never seen anything like that!! Do they come off ?

 

Yep they do come off & they lock.

 

I want a set. Who do I have to kill, and where do I get them?

 

Cars & Concepts used to make these,But they stop back in the early 90s.They also wont fit on the GM style t-tops roofs.They are about 2in shorter.

 

Woah! Thats awesome! I've never seen anything like that!

Hmm....Wonder if you can make something like that with the normal t-top cars.....

 

thats really cool!!!

 

Zepher, been at UWI i guess? I was in there on monday and there was a firebird there with them. Pretty cool

 

That is pretty damn cool, 1st I've seen or heard about it.....

 

Sorry to bring this back from the dead, but I talked to a guy today that has some he got at a salvage yard. Neat stuff! I'm intrigued, anyone have pictures?

 

PICS,PICS,PICS......please!!!!

 

Damn....2004
