Ironically that probably saved it. Sitting in a A/C controlled environment was probably the best thing for it.

I am restoring a 79 10th anniversary original 400 4sp t/a for my daughter. It started out as a car in a field and was very rough with plenty of rust and missing parts.
Here's a pic of the car last weekend when i started to put paint on it. We hope to have it done in a couple three more months. |

Frans455,
Love the Cars and Concepts roof. My 77 has the same thing. I had mine put in in 1986 shortly after purchasing my T/A. Still no problems to this day...of course I quit driving her daily in 1991. Just gets out on nice days nowadays! I still prefer the factory roof for looks overall but the C&C is a great conversation piece at cruise-ins and shows!  Oh yeah....GREAT looking TA too!

Thanks for the compliments guys!
Well, I had a donor Fisher roof with glass panels - the works ... laying around ... Problem was that when I bought the T/A in 1995 I had plexiglass panels on the car - which fit very poorly. A few years later I found several C&C glass panels along with the plastic interior caps etc. So the need for a roof conversion disappeared and I decided to keep the C&C roof.   The car needs work though in, the familiar areas (trunk, rear panel etc), but I will get to it ... The car is resting under a cover in the garage, cause the last 6 years I've been working on my 1950's house.  Gas prices in Europe are outrageous, so in future a propane conversion will be done. By the way, look at this pic:

What's up with the silver car with C&C tops and funky front seats?

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
