LTF: T-top skeleton picture

[69427]

Anybody have a t-top frame laying around? I'm kicking around doing it in aluminum and am interested in some pictures so I'm not totally reinventing the wheel, design-wise. Also, does anyone know if anybody supplies a replacement fiberglass t-top panel (so I don't have to make molds off my tops and do the 'glassing too)?

Just thinking about things while I get the car back together.

Thanks,
Mike

I have one in my storage. Glass top that the glass separated from. Next time I'm there I'll pick it up. Just don't know when that will be.

No rush. Thanks!

Been out of town for a week, but this morning I dragged a magnet over the bottom of the t-top, and other than the outer areas where the latches attach, there appears (to me) to be minimal metal framework in the top. Unless I'm mistaken, it seems like the tops may be constructed with two bonded layers of 'glass, similar to the construction of the hood. I thought I had seen a picture somewhere a long time ago showing an internal framework in the tops, but I'm coming to the thought that I'm incorrect. I had hoped I could take some weight out of the tops, but right now I'm uncertain.
