Celica T-TOPS!!!!!!!!!!!&a Options

[playr158]

might as well make a half hardtop for the vert

[LimitedGT4]

True but thats completely diff subject
So the plan is go to junkyard n find the donor mr2 or supra
Preferably one that comes with a support like in the first pics
To help with the structural issues
Then go to a place near my house where they do interior work
And deal with roofs all the time and hopefully find someone i can steal
A few ideaa from jajajajajajaj ok well ideas as to how much reinforcement
Would be needed and if my idea is good ok or jus bad lmao
sadly enough my fave junkyard is closed on saturdays for the summer so
Ill need to find a way to work around that

Unless someone has a list of junkyards within 50 miles of 02860
With confirmed mr2 ttop or supra ttop or targa with brace
That will let me actually look at the parts and possibly take it out
Myself before i have to pay for them car-parts does not help
As ive called and they ussually say they dont update that site


note this link is not for a celica but its pretty much how i thought to do it

possibly good candidate for some of the parts, maybe lol


possible top as it looks like it molds to our glass not a good angle theres another one that has more of a curve

1. not funny and y would i try to make sumtin thats already been made that makes no sense, plus y would anyone take a convertible and give it a roof? thats just dumb and not funny



2. thats actually ALOT more expensive as now youll need to reweld a whole lot more and possibly have to do some custom work as am pretty sure the hatch and the vert have very different roofs and supports so a big nono



3. -5 to you my friend as you have no ambition to do something awesome lol j/k

My educated response one by one,

for number 1. why the heck would you really make something already invented, if you don't understand the meaning of the word "sarcasm" please look it up in a dictionary.. you can even look it up online...


for number 2. you need to put on your glasses, to help you read, as i cannot spell it out for you, who is talking about a hatch.. again read the definition of the word "coupe"

for number 3. he really understood my post, not as you... shame on you..



Dude, to make a targa top, you need a reinforced under body, go spend extra money reinforcing a hatch. A vert is already reinforced, from factory...

and im not talking about putting a hatch on a vert, that is very stupid,

im talking about making a Targa ot a T-top Coupe. Do i need to make a drawing? that will be the easiest option for you.... (using vert and coupe parts)

That is the closest you will get, without spending thousands of dollars....


You got two options a hatch and a coupe. Know the differences..

the vert is a coupe with the roof cut and reinforced underbody... That if you did not Know..

Oh and i will subscribe to the thread, to see the marvelous progress...



The response i get for trying to be helpful.. How old are u....

On a second thought, ill have my daughter make a drawing and will post later....

exactly , enough said ur posts jus dumb


for number 2. you need to put on your glasses, to help you read, as i cannot spell it out for you, who is talking about a hatch.. again read the definition of the word "coupe"

no one was talkin about coupes or vert i dont use or need glasses cant say the same for you



for number 3. he really understood my post, not as you... shame on you..

who cares about that



Dude, to make a targa top, you need a reinforced under body, go spend extra money reinforcing a hatch. A vert is already reinforced, from factory...

and im not talking about putting a hatch on a vert, that is very stupid, exactly im on earth and your on ............ idk where cus ur off topic


im talking about making a Targa ot a T-top Coupe. dont like nor want a coupe i hate the tail lights and trunk space is horrible
Do i need to make a drawing? that will be the easiest option for you.... (using vert and coupe parts) dude i dont do easy i took a st auto turn into a 3sgte if i wanted easy i woulda used a 5spd gt

That is the closest you will get, without spending thousands of dollars.... ive got thousands so dont worry some of the advantages of being my age lol


You got two options a hatch and a coupe. Know the differences.. i know mines do you know yours? cus coming in talkin about coupes and verts on a strictly hatch subject says you dont

the vert is a coupe with the roof cut and reinforced underbody... That if you did not Know.. dont care read my first post you obviously need good glases

Oh and i will subscribe to the thread, to see the marvelous progress... subscribe onnnnnn and thanks for the support your obviously really curious so i wont disapoint you



The response i get for trying to be helpful.. so help was asked


How old are u.... old enough to have a license and drive

On a second thought, ill have my daughter make a drawing and will post later....

speakin of glases if you read the first post it reads "not lookin for lextures on structural integrity guys como lets just talk about wheter its a cool idea or not
Lets forget about money and specifics of physics and focus on wheter it would be a cool look or not" so get your bifocals on buddy and stop tryn to be cool.
i dont care for nor want nor plan to get a coupe or a vert n if i did get a vert y o y o y would i give it a roof if i get a vert its cus its a vert a targa is very diff than a vert
6gc last time i cheked did not come targa therefore not inventing but innovating
furthermore age has ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with it as i know 40 year olds that have no clue on how to buy a car or do some work to it but hey maybe my daughter can draw you a map so you can find where u stand lol THATs SARCASM!!!!
its all in good fun so dont take it personal but
SERIOUSLY
i wanna do a targa or t-top HATCH so dont bring a vert into the topic as it is off topic if u dnt think its cool then fine say you dont like the idea but dnt try and give me lectures as i dnt care what anyone would say i still plan to do it with my hatch again money aside notthin matters when i wanna do something i do it

why you mad? i said it was in good fun
and no im pretty sure a noob woulndt be able to manage what i accomplished from Apr - Jun
dude relax, i guess i hit soft spot
if ppl on this site really take the join date for what a person knows then please guys let me know
so i can stop posting and leave a site thats seem to be prejudice by join date.
ive read this site for a long while before i decided to join
and have had celicas for 6 years from 5gc to a 7gc to a 6gc (and my uncle owned a 4gc eons ago)
guess that makes me a noob, and fyi i dont need time or join date credentials to validate me

and no am no mechanic nor pretend to be am jus a person that does what he wants
