Newer roof on an older car
Would it be possible to weld on a 1978 T-Top top onto a 1970 Firebird? If so what would I have to watch out for?
I, currently, have a vinyl top and I can see bubbling underneath. Work is going to be required. I found a roof in really good shape and would love to have the T-Tops but if I can't, I'll repair and re-vinyl top it. Any advice? |

Yeah. I've seen it done more than once. I know the guy that owns this one and I think he did it himself.

To be honest....I can't remember now if he told me he grafted a roof or cut the original top to fit the hatches...It can be done either way though.

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.
