Hi members
I just made a contact to possibly make a run of ( Carbon fiber targa tops) yes the REAL THING not a wrap. A 914 top is being source to make the tooling. I understand I have no prices yet...but as soon as a donor top is found. I will be able to get an estimate based on the number of members interested. I will post pictures of a 911 targa top to give you an idea of the finished product. Who might be interested? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) Attached image(s) |

Trying to answer a few questions, some from the thread, some private. On the 911 top, the carbon, the laminate schedule is a mix of 6k, 12k and uni in key areas. All farics from Toray. The resin system is a high temp epoxy with a TG of 300f. The process is resin infusion. ...... For some more pics and info on the company and some of the bits we produce, you can find us on FB at helion composites, llc You can also find a great thread on pelican if you search for "composite targa top development" Meanwhile, here's a 911 top installed That's an expensive tool.Very nice results. Worth every penny. Now,need doors,trunk and hood. Add lightness,>Colin Chapman. Kudos. Edit:I presume you are using vacuum assist. |
