T-Top Help!!!!

86StangGT · 07-09-2001, 01:36 PM

I was leaving for the drags yesterday, and the heat shattered my t-top glass. I went to the local glass shop and they said they didn't mess with t-tops and they didn't know of any place that did. Does anybody know how I could fix this problem??? None of the junkyards around here have any mustangs with t-tops. And I don't feel like going to the ford dealership. Please help!! This sucks!!

Let me know what side it is and maybe I can help you out. When I bought my car one of them was broken and I found a new pair so I bought them both. Now I have an extra one BUT...I am stationed in Italy so it will be like $20-$30 shipping.

I have a 87lx with t-tops, I bought the car new, and raced it since new! I have always had a fear of those breaking! 1.58 60ft little twisting, so far so good , a friend who works at a Ford dealer said years ago if you find any at a swapmeet at a good price buy them! List was 1100.00 per side!

Hey LOCASH, it's the driver side T-Top. Any way you can help can be appreciated, cause us t-top guys are kinda left in the cold.
