This is something that I have been curious about for a while. I see that there are people on here who have converted their standard roof to a t-top, but I was wondering if its possible to just completely remove the top, much like that of a Corvette. Seeing as how (at least my car) is not a torque spitting monster, I wonder if after strengthening the rest of the chassis (subframe connectors, and a strut tower brace) if this would be a possibility. I know that fitting the top onto the car could cause quite a few headaches, but im just curious if the chassis is strong enough to handle a maximum of about 250-260 ft lbs. Has anyone ever done this, or know of anyone who has done it?

I would be worried about how it would negatively affect the car in an accident. If you do decide to go through with the idea. I would seriously consider putting a cage in the car.
