Sawing tops off (Tristan)



Yeah, there is a guy on the C-body list who just cut the entire roof off of
his car, from just behind the windshield to right before the rearwindow, the
car had no noticable sag at all, the (4) doors opened and closed just like
before. It was a '68 Chrysler New Yorker (methinks).

I'm sure your car will handle it, but make sure you cut nice and neat to
make it easier to have boots made to cover the edges etc. You might want to
call around to some convertible companies and ask their techs about how THEY
would go about making a removable hardtop or a convertible softtop for it. I
think the hardtop idea would be easier, but it would take LOTS of care while
cutting to preserve the top.
