Default T-Tops in a coupe, anyone tried

I was thinking about putting t-tops in my 88. Has anyone tried this. I know it would be pretty involved and wouldn't know where to start. Not even where to find a company who make them if they are still made buy an aftermarket manufacturer. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

if you wanted to hack one up and make it, I've seen a few done but they never seal well and almost always any t-top car factory or modified to be such leaks and I'd only do it if you plan not to use the car for strip use

yea, I wouldn't even bother cutting up a car and trying to turn it into a t-top car. Just buy a factory t-top coupe, if you can find one.

How about a street machine that runs 9's in the 1/4?
