Anyone know of a source for fiberglass replacemeent t-tops for G-bodies?

I'd like to see them offered two ways:

1. a complete, ready to paint, assembly with a padded interior panel covered with headliner material

2. as a retrofit service or DIY kit to replace the glass panels in someone's existing t-tops and utilizing your original "frames" (for lack of a better word).

Ideally, if you broke one of your glass t-tops you could send your broken one and your other one in and have the frames retrofitted with fiberglass panels with the correct shape and a padded panel on the underside that would match the headliner material.

I know there was a company down in Houston, Tx that offered replacement fiberglass t-tops for Corvettes back in the 70's but I haven't seen anything like it for G-bodies.

The fiberglass replacements would fill the need for replacement t-tops and they would also represent a weight savings (not sure how much).

So how about it? Anyone know of a source for such a product or have the means to produce it? :biggrin:

go to your fiberglass dealer that makes body panels and have them make it for you.

Shane's guy next door may be able to do it.
