Converticoupes
Thinking of replacing my stock rear windshield with the fiber-class converticoupe. I love the way it looks but was wondering if anyone who has installed one has had any leaking, hardware or allignment issues.

Those converticoupes are an acquired taste...and most people on this forum haven't acquired it yet.
I know of a local guy who bought a C4 with that modification. I'll run him down and ask him if he's had any issues with it.

I admit when I saw the first generation that was made of vinyl, it turned me off. But I saw the new fiberclass model with the raised deck behind the seats and it really looked sharp, especially with the hard top off.

I have the original CorvetteAccessories of America converticoupe designs. No leaks ever, even raced with it at etown once.. Looks awesome when the Targa is off, otherwise looks 'odd'.. That's why I only used it a few times... But anyways, it doesn't leak or nothing. Works as it was designed to....

Here are a couple pictures I found of the converticoupe. I would like to see one in person, would also like to see some good pictures of the coverticoupe kit from Mid America on a C4.
