Are they originals or aftermarket?
What are the codes on the glass?

Does the glass have PPG or LOF etched in them? PPG is the aftermarkt, LOF is original. The tops seem to be in good condition from the photos - it's hard to take a good picture of them because of reflection.

As a point of reference, I recently picked up a set that need to be cleaned up, weatherstripping restored for $250. Not only were they LOF but the date code matched my car - score!! They are in my attic now, a winter project I'm thinking.

Default tops

the tops are original....LOF. These are still in excellent condition. Orig. they were $1200 and they are still in excellent condition. Anyone know what they would go for now? Anyone looking?

If they are M1131 T-tops in excellent condition, then $650.00 is a little low in my opinion. If you go to E-bay, you can research what these have gone for in the past by using the "Advanced Search" to check out closed auctions.
