What's the going price on a rust free T-Top roof?

 

[Richard Miller]

I would suggest installing a hard top roof.
I have a cut hard top available if you are interested.
Good luck with your search for a good T-Top roof.

^agreed! There are vendors that sell ttop header parts. Typically the majority of top cars are rusted which causes the leak.

IF you find one, it'll be from a west coast car, or perhaps the South West . Here on the east coast, t-top cars take a beating from the elements. Good luck on your search......

I oddly found one in a package deal of vehicles I purchased. 1985 442 that hasn't been driven in 14 years and left outside. Not a hint of rust. Crazy

Then it had good seals and the tops were probably never taken off.

Yea... but now I feel guilty chopping the roof off a 85 442. lol

If you can't find a good top G-body parts makes all kinds of t-top parts. I went through the same thing with mine.

Oh no, I found a perfect one, I just hate the though of slicing and dicing a 85 442 T-Top. Would save me money, but there aren't many of those out there either.

Yea, don't see many of those cars left. My brother had a NICE 86 with the T-Tops. Replaced the 307 with an olds 455. Turned it back into a "Rocket Olds", LOL.

I never in 30 years looked twice at Oldsmobile. Got car talking with a patient of mine who told me about their 87 Euro that was loaded with a ASC sunroof that had been sitting for a few months and by the looks of things, was potentially in it's final resting spot. Ran into them out and about a few weeks later and they told me if I had an interest in it, I could have it for scrap prices. Figured why not? Worst case senario, I could chop it up for parts. I like driving that thing as much as my Escalade. haha
