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) |

Dr 914 did a pictorial on how to do steel roof maybe 10 years ago. Perhaps he can re-post it.
