Targa top for 1981 c3
« on: June 24, 2019, 06:00:48 PM »
Hi everyone.
Anyone know a good spot to buy a pair/single glass targa top for a 1981 C3. Went to purchase one from the USA and they wanted over $500us just for the shipping costs. Are there any places I can get them in Oz?
 :grr: :omg: :omg: :tears:

Thanks Brit. I’ll keep them in mind. I want to try and get a pair in Oz first.

Howdy, I see you are from the Shire - so am I.
My guess is the blue glass one you have is not the ideal match for the mirrored one I have. However, if it fits and the price is right, it would get me back out on the road.
My next pair, will be secured in way they are not just clipped on.  The current set up is both silly and very dangerous.
How much would you sell it for?
