is this a Tbird vert, or a Tbird with a vinyl roof? Pesronally I've never seen or heard of either how bout yall?

 

i beleive thats a vinyl top, but i havent seen much if any of em. the contours from those years had the same trim as that top does

 

i know around here vinyl roofs have become a pretty popular aftermarket add on. i see lots of crown vics and grand marquis and cars like that with them.

 

I know the cougars had vinyl tops as an option and I believe the T-birds for a few years did too. No verts for that style though. Would have been neat though!

 

I wish mine was a vert... I wonder how hard it would be to make a custom vert?

 

A lot of work would need to be done. From strengthening the body and A-pillars to fabricating the whole back end to accomadate the mechanics of the top. Not to mention all of the electrical hardware you would need. It would cost thousands to do it right. I'm sure its been done but its not worth it IMO.

Your car is perfect the way it is

 

can you find me a picture of an MN12 'Bird vert? I can't find any...

 

BTW mn12 means 89-97... just incase you didn't know...

 

OoOoOo trying to sound all spphusticated arent we?

 

 

arin just cause you dont get it doesnt make it sophisticated :P

 

hey hey hey, san jose aint that far away buddy. id watch out if i was you

 

there are places that do convertible conversions....i have seen devilles and towncars, so they could probably do a tbird

 

do you know any of their websites?

 

try vgdauto.com....saw it in dupont registry mag

 

I am sure it is possible, there are a couple of last generation Cadilliac Eldorado's in my town that were made into custom convertibles (however this might have been a referral from the dealer) and I am not sure if the T-Birds chassis is properly built for a convertible. You might have to do a lot of work to make it safe.

 

also try coachbuildersltd.com

 

i can do it


look ill even throw in a retractable top

 

vinal you can see the weird snap things along the bottom.

 

I found this tbird custom vert

& this cougar vert...
