??? Are you referring to targa tops? They have been a staple on vetts since '84 as well as nsx-t's and a few other miscel models. If you have a hardtop now it would be better to just buy a ttop car as the structural bracing on a ttop car or convertible is much more to compensate for rigidity of the shell. The cost involved would be astronomical but targas are cool. I have had them all and i have to say a convertible is the easiest to deal w/...lugging the ttops off and on again makes me never take the one i have off the vette.

well it seems pretty easy a simple cut across clean up the edges then keep the top to place over if some random storm pops up now if i had some super engine and was a wild driver then yeah i would be nervous about torque twisting the frame and all that jazz but i really liked it ill look for better pics tho................ too bad we still got snow up here in saratoga damn this is the longest winter everrrrrr

That red one also looks like he lives in our part of the country too. Talk about chassis flex in cars w/any balls.

Its a targa but i was saying rolling back a vertible top is soo much easier than taking a ttop or targa top off and storing it in the trunk

Holy sh!t Simon and Simon I loved that show.. If I remember right he drove the Z28 (3rdgen) and like a 68 RS. There was A Bel Air Vert and A dodge Power wagon in the show too.

It was a tv show...i guess these new cats also never heard of Cagney and Lacey, Rockford Files, or Hardcastle and Mccormick ( always liked that red kit car they had on that show). Or what about "Acapulco heat' w/the red rx-7 in it.....youngin's. Next up they probably think 'gone in 60seconds' w/nick cage was the original.

Sometimes the sh!t was better back in the day...i like my women like Alex likes his eyebrows...bushy son.
