914-6 GT in waiting ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Group: Members Posts: 19,334 Joined: 19-September 09 From: Landenberg, PA/Wilmington, DE Member No.: 10,825 Region Association: MidAtlantic Region ![]() ![]() |
I'd like to do a steel/fixed hardtop on one of my cars. Probably the Subaru conversion. It's been done before so I know time and money will get me one. I'm wondering if I can go a slightly different angle on the mod.
Weld in steel stiffeners front to back. Lay a slightly modified oem targa top over the stiffeners. Leave enough room at the front to bond the lip of the targa top into the window frame channel and bolt and bond the top and the steel stiffeners together. Thoughts? (I just gave Pat Garvey a migraine) |

Years ago someone cut a top off a 924 and then cut and welded it in on top of the 914....
That's the only one I remember. |

Not only did he graft on a 944 roof he used one that had the tilt / remove sunroof included. The car has moved from owner to owner a few times, I think TC has owned it twice. Blue metallic 6 GT conversion. Beautiful car. Someone better than me can find the thread. |
