Anyone know who sells them?
How am I going to get more than on pass at the dragstrip without one?

Do you have a pic with the hatch open?

Why didn't I think of that?
Did you get the hardtop with the car or did you purchase it ?

It is an aftermarket top. The two that I am familair with are from GM and Smoothline. I have the Smoothline. The GM unit is built better but more expensive. It'll probably cost you between $500 to $1000 for a used one depending on which one you go for and its' condition.

Thanks for the info. :thumbs:
I'd still like to see a pic of the rollbar installed. I'm curios to see how and where they mount it.
