  • I AM AN IDIOT

    I was driving on the freeway today and my t-top flew off the passenger side of the car! And i am getting quotes of about 800 bucks! I am a wholesaler so i get it for like 620, but is there anywhere you guys know that might have the part for less than that? I am thinking about going around some junk yards and looking there.

          Call Fbody salvage yards. They can cost as cheap as $150 if you find the right one. Happened to me with my old car...sucks but it happens.

              It broke? hmm....my ex girlfriend's dad had that problem and it didnt even scratch it (87 TA). In my wreck in my 88 SC, it seemed like the whole car bent around the darn things...they were twisted and squeezed but never broke. Are 3rd gen ttops made of diamond or something?

                    Wow! You had it latched and everything? The t-tops on my 94 were so much more sturdy than the ones on my thirdgen.

                    So glad I found a hard top though. I hate t-tops.

                      I bought the dirver and passenger one for $217 shipped to my door that is both of them. I pulled a few pins out of the cam locks and the locks work with my keys.

                      Watch out for junkyards, they know most people looking for them NEED them and jack the price up. They were quoting my friend ~$400-500 for one, he got one local for $175.

                      you can get them for $125-150 off ebay for "buy it now" Cheaper if you can wait awhile for a deal.

                            Yeah no problem dude. It happens more than you think. It seems I read these threads once a month between the forums I go to. Hey, at least you didn't do it at the track like on guy I read about. [img]smile.gif[/img]

                              Yeah it does happen hell I know a guy that wanted to borrow a t-top off me or buy new ones and use one of mine temporarily. Unfortuneately I had to say no because he has the tendency to borrow car parts put them on his car and not pay anyone.
