Default FOR SALE: GLASS T-TOPS, MINT CONDITION

These t-tops came from my 79 Corvette which I no longer have. They are blue in color and are in absolute mint condition. Have been boxed and covered in the basement for years. It's time to move some items and I am sorry these have to go. Taking reasonable offers.

Wow. Those look great! Those go for quite a pretty penny to people who have an original car with a cracked or damaged top. I don't think they make them anymore.

They only have once latch, not two like the earlier cars. I'm sure they'd work though. I've received only one offer so far, but about 10 emails. I'm trying to figure what these babies are worth.

I doubt it! A friend of mine has a 79 with the same tops and I tried his on my '75, they don't even lay correctly, let alone latch..... I have seen places (Ads) that will retro fit your tops to look like these. The company that makes Astro-Tops comes to mind, but I'm sure there are others also.

They will fit on a 75. I have them on mine. You will have to modify the rear latch area, but they will work, with some adjusting. I got mine from a parted out 79 about 8 years ago.

GWHITE75 - OK, now I'm getting interested. Do you have a pic of how you modified the rear latch area. When I looked (very quickly I must admit) the tops did not look like they followed the same roofline curve, that's way I've been thinking of trading in my cores for a set of glass/acyrilic tops.

KenSny My 75 Started life with the same exterior color as yours!!

I don't have pics. Where our original tops used two latchs and latched on the inside, in the back, the glass tops have a rod that slides inside a chrome plate mounted on the outside roll bar post. (outside the door glass) I was able to get the chrome rear rod mount plates off the 79 Vette, from where the tops came, which was being parted out. I had to drill a hole on the outside roll bar post, for the rod to slide into, then I screwed the chrome rod mount plate over the hole. The glass top front latch latches in the existing, stock location. Don't expect the glass tops to fit as good (seamless) as the fiberglass tops, but the fit is not so bad that it is unsitely. I just bought an Astro Top and its fit is not perfect, but I like it. If I decide I want to keep it, I will sell my glass tops, with locks and the chrome plates, sometime in the future.

GWHITE75 - Thanks for the reply.

Don't see many Med. Saddle painted cars. I like the color.

I'm using the Astro-Top now because the left T-Top mounting pin area is broken away, but I think the Astro's mounting is pretty cheesey looking and am wondering if it is going to last very long. The wife got it for a xmas present last year, so I can't complain in front of her.....
