Default conver my coupe to a T-top please

can anyone make this into a T-top? like the supra's t-top?

please roll the windows down if you can. thanks!


you don't have to use that car if you don't want to... just want to see an SC from the sideview with a T-top.

thanks

Not quite sure about the look, but it would definitley be unique and I wouldn't say anything bad about it. However, I doubt if there will be enough structural integrity to support the windshield and other parts. Hell, if you have a spare SC, give it a shot!

Thumbs up

I like the look, but I am worried about the structual strength once the center is removed..If it can be done safely then I say go for it...

As far as I remember, even the MKIV supras with factory targa tops loose structural integirty once the targa is removed, and as you can see they are still driveable.

i do have YSR interior support bars and do-luck subframe chasis brace which should help out a bunch... I'll see how much it would run me.
