Are you selling them or offering them for free? I'll pay shipping if you are giving them away.

Re: no more t tops c&c car anyone need them

Ive been thinking of changing my 89 TA over to Ttop and have already found a doner car . My question is,Where are the factory seams? I think they are the top of the w/shield post and the top of the qtr panel.I havent started anything yet,just considering.

If you're thinking of putting t-tops onto your car, maybe you should talk to 1b Rock and maybe you two could swap tops. He'd get his hard top and you'd get your t-tops. IMO, C&C are superior to factory tops.

I've seen Fiero guys go nuts for the C&C T top kit for those cars, from the looks of it is that anyone who wanted to could safely salvage the parts and install them in any car. I'd imagine F bodys are the same.

Re: no more t tops c&c car anyone need them

For the life of me I will never understand why anyone would want a hard top over T-tops unless the car is going to be used for racing only.

I think they look stupid. All most all super nice 3rd gens are hard top. Throw some t tops on those perfect cars and bam you got a ok car in my book. I will never buy a t top 3rd gen...

Meaning:
In { I }
My. { M }

In his opinion, C&C are the better t-top
