Re: Moon Roofs (virtue4u)
Never truly an option....they never made it to the 1977 production line as intended. They were designed to be Option CC1 for the 77' model year and was even listed in early factory brochures. Original tops cannot be modified to look "decent" as Moon Roofs due to the fact that the glass is slightly curved.
I have more info on "Moon Roofs" on my website, page 5.
Like said earlier....ebay or Corvette salvage yards are your best bet.

Re: Moon Roofs (Tominator)
I think I saw them in the Mid America catalog, it can replace your T-Tops and gives more viewing area. I would call them for details and the price seemed like it was around 400.00

I curved glass will be the problem.
A couple of days ago a set went on ebay go for $512, thought that was high.
Bought mine on ebay for $200 and put $85 seals on them.

Not flaming or anything, but why would you want to?

If it was good enough for G.M. it's good enough for me. :cheers:

Re: Moon Roofs (virtue4u)
i picked up a one piece roof from a guy in new jersey , but i have to tell you that it is not as i expected . it doesnt fit as snug as the t tops . there is also a gap between it and the windows that allows air or water in the cockpit. the only useful thing i can say about it is that when i toss it in the rear of the car i dont have to worry about it breaking , cracking , or landing crooked as i do when the t tops are there . but for the most part , i only use the one piece for long drives , i think id be better off with a canvas top and would advise the same for anyone concidering a 1 piece top.
