I Want...



I hate convertibles. The only things a top should come off of is women and jeeps. T tops are a different story tho.
 


That's ****ing awesome, I've always thought these cars would look sweet as convertibles. Is that someone's custom job or was it some pontiac concept?
 
I think it's someone's custom job, I would love to do that to mine, if I had a 2 door that is. That looks sweet :)
 
Just don't get into an accident with it. The roof is part of the unibody and without it you loose a lot of structural rigidity. Unless that guy has an engineering degree and planned out proper bracing under the car, it would crumple like a tin can.

I totally agree! and in all honesty i believe all convertibles should be required to have some kind of roll bar/cage because its a safety hazard. sure it has the windshield but nothing else in most cases to even begin to protect u in the case of an accident.
 


I've owned a couple convertibles. Hard to say anything beats one one a nice cool fall evening on some back county roads. However, a convertible Grand Prix? I think I would pass, just for Sabrewings reason above.
 
i think if they cut the top, they would know to re-enforce the body to help prevent it, but really any convertable you get in an accident and you can be in trouble i mean theres no top! lol
 
I was going to do that to mine, but I own a four door. I was hoping to build a v8 RWD ragtop Grand Prix, but I realized that it would be cheaper to buy a vette.
 


That particular concept was fake. It didn't have a working top at all, it was just for looks. As for any reinforcement done, I donno, i doubt it since it was a concept vehicle. I probably ended up being crushed anyway. It came to a couple of the GPGs back in the day.

I agree with Sabre though, I wouldn't do this to my car for the obvious safety reasons. I've never really liked convertibles anyway...
 
Anyone have the link to the orange GP that i THINK was a convert? It was a burnt orange and it was extremely modded out. I know it ended up being crushed but it was a sweet car.

This one looks pretty good. No a fan of convertables but this one looks good.
