HIWAY ONE Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 I believe there was one at the Motorsports Show this year or last. Check the pictures at their website. I'm wondering if anyone has grafted a 280zx t-top to a first gen Z. That would be really cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHO-Z Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 There would be little difference between a targa and a convertible. You have to reinforce the chassis and where the top is cut. The cross supports for the top is the windshield and the hatch hinge area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nismo kid Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 It can be done. But its goin to take extra bracing, mounting system, etc. It will be alot of work. If your not very savy with fabricating find someone who is but be ready to pay. It would be nice to have if and only if it was done correctly. The last thing you want to do is hack a perfectly good z up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
