Crazy K Posted October 16, 2007 Report Posted October 16, 2007 I need to know. I believe someone somewhere replaced the roof of a TGP with the roof panel from a car with a factory sunroof. I think I saw this once long long ago... in time far far before what I saw that makes my request most urgent tonight. At the time there were pictures of the hard work of cutting and welding. links? anything? THANKS! Quote
kuntzie Posted October 16, 2007 Report Posted October 16, 2007 it was swaped on to a regal i think for some reason Quote
GutlessSupreme Posted October 16, 2007 Report Posted October 16, 2007 I remember that! I have no idea who it was though lol. Quote
ManicMechanic Posted October 16, 2007 Report Posted October 16, 2007 Wasn't it firefighter_0029 or something like that? The Regal was white with a gray stripe? Quote

Crazy K Posted October 16, 2007 Author Report Posted October 16, 2007 1 WOW! ...but not what I was looking for. 2 TGPs did not come with a factory OEM sunroof. 3 I checked out a TGP that had a OEM sunroof installed. WHO DID THIS TO A TGP? Quote
kuntzie Posted October 16, 2007 Report Posted October 16, 2007 the sunroofs are installed from asc. Quote
Crazy K Posted October 16, 2007 Author Report Posted October 16, 2007 the sunroofs are installed from asc. correct. I speak of a TGP that does not have a ASC sunroof, it has a transplanted roof panel from a newer GP with a pre-punched roof and the OEM sunroof. Quote
mfewtrail Posted October 17, 2007 Report Posted October 17, 2007 the sunroofs are installed from asc. correct. I speak of a TGP that does not have a ASC sunroof, it has a transplanted roof panel from a newer GP with a pre-punched roof and the OEM sunroof. Pictures? By the way, the sunroofs in TGP's are Inalfa units, not ASC. Quote
GutlessSupreme Posted October 17, 2007 Report Posted October 17, 2007 I thought we went over this? both my TSTE and my TGP had/have factory sunroofs, and they were both made by Inalfa, not ASC. Where are you getting this misinformation that TGP's didn't have factory sunroofs? Quote
kuntzie Posted October 17, 2007 Report Posted October 17, 2007 inalfa is asc, but thats besides the point Quote
kuntzie Posted October 17, 2007 Report Posted October 17, 2007 the sunroofs are installed from asc. correct. I speak of a TGP that does not have a ASC sunroof, it has a transplanted roof panel from a newer GP with a pre-punched roof and the OEM sunroof. the sunrof physically look the same from 1989-1993, they appear to be factory installed with the punched roof as you call it, why is this so important if i may ask Quote
mfewtrail Posted October 17, 2007 Report Posted October 17, 2007 inalfa is asc, but thats besides the point As of 2002, yes, but back when our cars were made I think they just kinda did contract work for ASC. Quote
kuntzie Posted October 17, 2007 Report Posted October 17, 2007 ^ yes very true, i think it was like a same product different naming type of deal Quote
Crazy K Posted October 17, 2007 Author Report Posted October 17, 2007 why do I ask? here's why. Quote
GutlessSupreme Posted October 17, 2007 Report Posted October 17, 2007 why do I ask? here's why. a hot TGP, but I still don't understand why. that's the exact sunroof my turbos had/have, stamped roof and all. Quote
Addicted To Boost Posted October 17, 2007 Report Posted October 17, 2007 Thats exactly what the sunroof in my TGP looks like. Quote
Crazy K Posted October 17, 2007 Author Report Posted October 17, 2007 oh???????? I've seen over and over that the sunroofs for TGPs were add on, and that would implyh they were not OEM. maybe that is wrong! I have the RPO codes at least. Quote
Addicted To Boost Posted October 17, 2007 Report Posted October 17, 2007 Ken, are you getting the build dates for all the TGPs too? I'm curious to see when mine was made (my door sticker is gone) Quote
GutlessSupreme Posted October 17, 2007 Report Posted October 17, 2007 Ken, are you getting the build dates for all the TGPs too? I'm curious to see when mine was made (my door sticker is gone) I don't think it's possible to look that information up. Quote
ManicMechanic Posted October 17, 2007 Report Posted October 17, 2007 If we can find the dates of cars built near Nick's, it's possible. Quote
krenzy Posted October 17, 2007 Report Posted October 17, 2007 Mine's June 12, 1989. That is the same stamped roof on my old and current TGP. Quote
Crazy K Posted October 17, 2007 Author Report Posted October 17, 2007 Ken, are you getting the build dates for all the TGPs too? I'm curious to see when mine was made (my door sticker is gone) I don't think it's possible to look that information up. I will collect that info, but I have no way to find out. you will need to report what your car cars says for it to be in the database. Quote
mfewtrail Posted October 18, 2007 Report Posted October 18, 2007 Ken, are you getting the build dates for all the TGPs too? I'm curious to see when mine was made (my door sticker is gone) Late 1989 most likely. My 211000 car was built 8/30/1989 and matt's 217163 car was built 9/1989. So the 234XXX range like yours were probably done somewhere around September-NovemberISH if I had to take a guess. If more people could post their build dates, we could guesstimate yours to within a few days or so... Quote
