Re: t/top convert to vette

I would say no. The middle part helps keep the car ridgid. Removing this would require modifications to the frame to stiffen it just like they would for a convertible. Im not sure all you would have to do, but it would be alot easer to just keep it a t-top

Re: t/top convert to vette

i think the car would be much much hotter with a one piece top. i know there will be mods needed but with sf connectors and i have access to get a roll cage do you think thatll be enough

Re: t/top convert to vette

Another vette like conversion that I thought was cool was "hard" t-tops, not glass. They are body colored panels that make it look like a hard-top.
