Hard Top for Vert??
Do they make a hard top that can be placed on a c5 vert? I know they had them for the c4 but not sure if its is available for the c5. I just bought this car for a good deal and I also just ordered a new soft top for it but to be honest I really wish I could put a hard top on it. Any help or info would be appreciated. Thanks Mike

I believe they make one. A hard top is something I want too, along with so many other things

I had a hard top for my 72 many many moons ago...and it was a pain to store and install..
.
Plus it got extremely little usage...
No way would I even think of buying one for my 2 other Convertibles..(64 and 98)
