Hello All,

I seem to recall that someone on the site was fabbing steel targa tops, but my searches have come up empty.

Is anyone out there selling steel targa tops? Thanks.

Not cheap at $4000 for the parts and up to 12 months wait. However, it is very interesting and may order one myself. I don't know if there is any economy in scale if 2 or more can be on order at once. Anyone else interested?
Now to find someone capable of installing the roof correctly.

My gf is thumbs down on welded installation. These days, I think that someone could 3D an existing top and fab it. My goal is to gain frame stiffness. Maybe a good solution is to fab a tube frame, mount the hold downs to the frame, and mount the top to the frame. Thanks for all the input.
