I had a 914 in the 70's and liked the targa top back then. But in my middle age I have a solid dislike for convertible anythings, targa tops, sunroofs, convertibles, semi-convertibles or anything but a simple steel roof.
I also like the extra chassis stiffness a welded steel top will add. Here is a steel top but with a 924 sunroof. I don't get the sunroof but then I don't expect anyone to think a solid steel roof is a good idea either. Anyone weld a steel top on their 914? |

this page has some pics on the second page of a nice steel roof I think built at AA a steel roof threada
I'm gonna do one like Dan's using an early 944 roof.......god help me! When I asked him at WCR2008 how many hours he had into his he replied............. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) That being said, I heard most people say they were never fans of the idea until they saw his car. I think many would seriously consider it if they were better fabricators or had deep pockets. Jim |
