been kickin this idea round for over a year with my body shop guy and finally desided f-it... I'm gonna targa top my celica... I need to see a photo of someone with a 93-98 supra with a targa top so if anyone on this board has one or know someone who does then slap a digi in there hands and take a couple photos of it! I need to see everything! the latches, and all under the headliner supports. I also need to see the side weather strips.
Also if anyone here knows where there is a junked out 93-98 supra with a targa top let me know I need some parts off it, mainly the targa top parts. If I go through with this I will do a write up on it and give you all the do's and dont's of the deal. Thanks and any help will be greatly appreciated!

what we are trying to do is us the targa parts from the supra : latches moldings subframe reinforcements... basically I need the whole roof off of a supra with a targa top to make this work and am currently looking for a wrecked one. as for the T-bar Idea.. I have a sunroof.. so that Idea is out. I also want to hook it up to where my sunroof will still go into the "UP" position but not the retracted postion.. but need to take another look at the motor assembly for the sunroof. I would have to use a quick connect adapter to make the elec run but I have been talking to my body man and we both feel that this can be done for under a grand if all the targa parts can be located cheap.. if I have to shell out for brand new parts then I will have about a grand just in targa parts and thats not counting cost to modify the celica. I still need to see photos so if anyone can help me out that would be great.
as for supporting the cars weight we are still up in the air on that... basically that has been the only thing holding us back on this and am thinkin about hooking up a small roll cage type deal but am still uncertian as to how so any suggestions would be helpful.
