Targa Top On The Way!!!, any suport ideas? Options

[blaque_6thGen]

Hey guys, guess what! I am actually going to get a targa top for my ST! I already spoke to the guy that is going to be doing my bodywork and he said that I could do it, I just needed to make sure that I got some kind of support on the underside of the car to make sure that the car doesn't bend due to the lack of support (especeially since its a hatch). He kind of implied that I souhld look for it myself and he would help me put it on, I'm just not sure where I would get something like that or if I am able to to have someone make some kind of brace out of material similar to roll cage piping.

I asked him if a roll cage would do the trick. He said that it would help but it would not give me the complete support that I will need.

Do you guys have any ideas?

Thanks!!

I use to work in a kit car shop, and cut plenty of fieros tops off,not to mention the numerous bugs and gias we made into convertibles. Usually an x shaped brace at the bottom works. For a targa, a brace from front tire to rear tire on each side of the body should work. All verts have them. good luck, I think its possible
