is it possible to take the convt frame, with the top and glass attached, and swap it completely as one piece onto another car? the top is coming from a 88 4cyl lx, going to a 88 5.0 gt (if it makes a differance)

if so how hard would it be?

on a side note, i may have posted this twice. i apologize if i did. i hit a few wrong buttons the last time i was writing this up

 

Yes!!! That is what I did. Found a top frame with top and rear glass on Ebay for $150 plus $150 shipping. Took a couple hours to install. Go for it!

 

how much is involved? is it a 2 person job? and was there anything else that you needed?

 

I did it alone . a second person would have been nice.. Didnt need anything else

 

i took the top off a donor car, its not hard, but 2 people is nice (im still trying to sell the damned thing) but yeah, it honestly is like 6 bolts holding the frame in

 

how about the window? mine has glass which looks to be in good shape. the other has the plasitic window that is torn. Can those be swapped? (without leaks)

 

Sure can. The window section attaches to the main top with a zipper on the top side and bolts to the car at the bottom. You should have no problem making the swap! Mine didnt leak a drop .

 

will a 1993 top and frame bolt right into a 1988
