7500 to make the targa happen? that seems high considering it hasn't been proven not to leak, and there is no storage mechanism.
You'd really be pulling in money hand over fist if this was nearer to 5k, you had a storage mechanism for the top, you could prove that the top wouldn't leak while in a car wash, and you could show some examples of how you maintain rigidity, or that significant rigidity isn't sacrificed.

My wife and I were just talking about T Tops in the Z but this would be much better. I think even if you did not do this to make money you should look into it....as Greedy said, you would make a TON of money if you could make it work and not leak. Keep looking into it and let us know.

However, there were like 30 people signed up to do it. I'll look for the thread.

How bout some pics of the top piece to put back in along w/ how you re-attach it...
I've looked into this...thinking of stealing the seal and clips off the roadster for mine...unless you have a better way already figured!

Nice job on the targa! It's been talked about for years, and you guys actually came through and did it. I would love to see you guys offering the conversion as a service instead of just for this one-off show car.




That has to be the hottest shat I have seen done to the Z. You're right it screams for it, hell it evens sings for it in the key of Z. Its worth saving for.
