Default T-Tops?

Just got an '80 project with an acrylic 1 piece top. Considering glass top price and Texas summers I'm thinking of going '68-'77 fiberglass tops for a while. The idea is to squeeze in extra insulation in the tops but not sure of head room, liners and such.

Any advice?

Welcome to the forum. I too have a 1980 black project car. :cool:
Why not just go with 78-82 fiberglass tops? Save you the time of changing the pins and such. :cheers:
Here are some tops that are on ebay you might want to check out: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=1839290170
