Billet Alloy Targa replacement
Hi,
I have been working on a couple of SC's recently and was considering developing a cnc'd billet alloy replacement roof. It would fit the standard hole and take standard rubbers, clamps and locating pins. Comprising of four pieces that could be shimmed to adjust to the specific car, there would be an aperture left in the middle that could be filled with glass, or bonded alloy and painted.
Not sure if you felt there is a need, and if so what sort of cost it would need to be to be an attractive option against refurbishing the original.
Any feedback would be great,
Thanks,
Jon

It's an interesting concept for sure, sort of a hard top option for Targa's, just like they have on verts. No idea on cost, but I think it's marketable.
