Thanks

I think you would need to change the front hardware. The hardware was used from 84 to early 86. Then it was changed.
So not a direct swap but not a big effort.

Thanks. looking at a 1987 that has a glass top that is cracked. could just get it fixed, I see places advertise doing that for about $350. I can pick up a solid top, used for about $150.

do some research here. Some guys cover their cracked targa top with carbon fiber. Looks pretty good and cheap.
