I know this is an old thread but reading through it, it seems converting a convertable to targa top would be your best bet. You already have the reinforcment where you want it.
The only problem here is you would need a doner coupe, which Im sure wouldn't be terribly hard to find. Also the convertable top adding any structeral rigidity is very very doubtful. Im sure its strong and everything but the kinds of forces and stress the body is under would far surpass the tolerance of a convertable top. |
