Hi all, I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on converting my
hardtop TA to T Tops. I live in the midwest, and I was wondering if
anyone knew of any shops that do this sort of thing. The only reason I
wouldn't buy one with T tops already is because I got this one for a
steal, and it would still be cheaper to have the work done than get a
different one.

Actually, by the time you add the necessary additional framing and
structural support needed by the t-top car, it would probably be cheaper
to just buy one with t-tops. Not only that, an aftermarket t-top is
going to have much more leakage trouble than an original.

I've heard of guys that will swap out all the framing from a wrecked
Camaro or TA and put it all in for $400(but he works in SC), so I was
wondering if anyone knew of someone in the midwest that did it, or
even, dare I say, could custom fit a targa top to a F Body car. Now
that would be awesome.
