Posted by: slackin' at work Apr 2 2009, 09:22 AM
Im looking for a nice, undamaged, original finish targa top for my early 72.
basically I'm looking for an above average bare top.
the PO has put down some thick automotive paint (in hi-gloss black nonetheless)
and most of the grain has been smoothed over. I was going to paint it a closer
color to original but realized by that point the grain will be all gone. so Im
throwing this up here to see.
I don't need latches, seals, etc. just the fiberglass top itself.
it needs to be undamaged, nicked, or cracked. faded is ok because I could
probably refurbish it with a nice light coat of semigloss paint.
something close to central VA would be awesome. I'll be up in the RI, CT, MA
area in a month, so that is a possibility as well. something to save on shipping.
please let me know what you have. pictures and price would be appreciated.
thanks in advance.

I have a decent one off a '71 parts car that I just parted out. I believe it is original and unrefinished. It is faded but in decent shape if I remember correctly. I was going to do the same thing that you suggested, light coat of semigloss. I don't have pics but can take a few and forward them to you. I'm in Southwestern PA (Somerset) and am probably about 5 hours away, 81 to 70west. I'm about 1hr to 1-1/2hr west of Breezewood. I was just in Harrisonburg,VA on a golf trip last week! I hadn't really thought about selling it so I don't know what to tell you about the price.
You can email me at gbeals@excite.com if you are interested
