Hypothetical Question - Hardtop glass availability

[JPSmit]

This showed up for sale nearish by. The price is not bad and, I have been warming to the look of Midget hardtops. (Maybe even AC?

Is the glass replaceable? Is it glass?

For $175 you can't pass it up! Looks like a factory hard top and the originals had a glass rear window but if you can't get one plexi works well as long as you are careful with it. They do take up lots of space but you can always rig it to hang from the rafters. I have two in various stages of restoration.

That is kind of pricey for one without the glass. You could probably make a back glass from plexiglass fairly easily

From Kurt's response I guess that they are more expensive back east (and you wouldn't have to pay $100 shipping from here)

Geez, Bill, I think I payed $300 for one that needs quite a bit of work. Rear glass is good but fiberglass and mount's need repair and it needs paint. For MkII Midget. But, hey, you guys have good enough weather you would never use one so they should be cheap!:friendly_wink:

Out here when they run 250 then they had better be almost perfect!
