SOLD: C6 Transparent Roof Panel
SOLD!
Just in time for the GREAT driving weather!
C6 Transparent Roof Panel (complete)
Fits ALL C6 Coupes (except C6 Z06 and C6 ZR1) 2005-2013
Absolutely PERFECT condition*
I WILL NOT SHIP THIS ITEM. THIS IS A PICK UP ONLY!
MUST be picked up in SCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA 85255 (Loop 101 & Hayden Rd. Exit)
*This particular roof was shipped to Van Chevrolet, in another customer’s custom ordered single-top C6 in 2012. It was shipped (personally) by Thomas E. Hill, then Quality Engineering Manager for Corvette Division (Bowling Green, KY) at the time.
How THAT happened:
A long time friend and fellow Corvette owner custom ordered his 2nd Vette, a 2006 Monterey Red ($995 extra) Coupe. In 2009 he got the GM recall for the roof delamination and they sent him an UNPAINTED replacement roof. GM authorized a local Chevrolet dealer body shop to paint it. It never matched the halo or any other part of his car. Like most of us he would not accept the replacement roof.
He worked his way up the GM corporate chain for customer service… all the way up to the top; Mr. Hill. My friend talked to T.E.H. three times, including in Mr. Hill’s ZR1 on his way to Bloomington Gold. Mr. Hill “fixed” the problem with my friend by giving him transparent roof in addition to the solid (badly painted) roof.
Being very particular, and finding out how many of these roofs were damaged in shipping via UPS/FedEx in crates, Mr. Hill ordered the roof be put in the back hatch of an ordered non 2-top C6 Coupe. He gave directions that the roof NOT be touched or removed from the new C6 until my friend could come in person to Van to put it in his car.
When my friend ordered his C7 (’14) he sold me his transparent roof and had the solid top re-painted to sort-of-match his C6.
I have had the top for our good weather driving weather since Oct. ’13. I added a Mid America removable sun liner that I bought at Corvette Arizona.
Roof new: $1599.99 +tax (or shipping)
MAM liner new: $129.99 +tax (or shipping
From me:
Roof: $700
Liner: $FREE with ROOF
Both: $700 -More than $1000 LESS than OEM NEW price!

Reason for sale: I sold my '08 and am saving up for a C7 Z06 Vert... driving a Jeep until then.
