Recommended Posts

is there such a thing?

if i ever purchased a conv. cutty i think id want to try and put one together

omaha has some weird weather..

it would be fun to have the top down sometime, but it wouldn't happen very much

and the thought of hanging a soft top just makes me wonder how long it would be

till my crap gets stolen out of it...

 

anyways random jw what u guys thought

Just buy a coupe....cut the top off....then figure out a way to rig it so you can put it on/off like a hard top

interesting idea. i've thought about something similar for a gp for a long time.

 

swapping the skin from a gp onto a cutlass vert, then chopping and grafting a gp roof on. that way i could have a targa top and not worry about compromising the unibody.

i like how the vert has the bar across like some vert stangs do...

and id wanna keep that...

like the idea of a gp top somehow...

i always wanted to go to the jy and cut the top off of another car, and somehow use that, keeping the vert top, but having a hard top to add if I wanted. mostly this idea was with my cavalier, but same idea

I'm sure one could be made. Remember the Maserati TC of the early '90s? They took a Chrysler LeBaron and put Maserati badges on it, plus a few minor details and they had a hardtop reminiscent of the mid fifties T-Birds with a porthole.

You mean like this!? My Mom snapped a picture of this for me when she was in Europe a few weeks ago.

I've never seen one before except in this pictures, chances are they were never sold in Canada.

the 89 had a pretty unique 4-banger if you ask me. 90 and 91 have a mitsu v6, blah.

In order for the CS to have a hardtop option. You would have to have the Rear Window reduced greatly and the side windows omitted or porthole-like in order to create something solid enough to bolt down. Personally I would like to have the rear cover like the pacecar with a special roof and rear cowl.

I don't think the Maserati TC is wide enough or the top could be modified...
