Ok, I talked to the guy about the body, all it needs is a tranny and engine. Here is the lowdown, it has grey/black interior, maroon exterior, had an auto in it, stock rims, 3.23 9 bolt rearend. The guy said it was a tight body and he only wants $595obo for it. The only problem I have with it is it doesn't have T-Tops! I haven't seen the car but I plan to go see it soon. Are there any aftermarket T-tops for these cars that I can get put in if I buy the body and decide I want T-tops?

I wouldn't put aftermarket t-tops in. The chassis on t-top cars is reinforced to deal with the lack of a roof. Putting them into a car not built for it will result in a soda can on wheels. Even if you stiffen the chassis through SFCs and other means, if you ever need new gaskets, or a new top, or any other sort of repairs done, forget it.

am sick of people saying things about aftermarket t tops ..i have a car with them and honestly they are better than the factory tops ...they dont leak like factory ones and thay ARE AS STRONG or the dmv wouldnt alow them on the road !

 

the dmv allows fords on the road too....

 

I would say lay low w/ the t-tops. Dont put such a priority on it. I suggest do a few projects first, then see if you still want to bother with it. I have t-tops on my firebird and camaro, I dont take them off that much, even when I lived in southern CA...
