    Has anyone tried one of these Sliding Ragtops on a Model A coupe?

    http://www.slidingragtops.com

    Looks like a great alternative to the open/closed top debate. Looking for input...
     
  2. Looks like the old streetbeat ragtops from Phoenix AZ. I have one in my Mini. Not to bad, I think one would work fine in a model "A"

    That looks pretty cool on that A. I have a neighbor that put one in his Model A pickup, no pics though.
     

  5. I've been contemplating the idea of going with one of those as well. Seems like a nice product and they have been around for a long time. It would be nice if they were an Alliance vendor ;)

    i thought those "street beat" ones had a big plastic lip on the front. i'd check out thesamba.com and use some old vw guts.

    I just sent the email to Ryan! We are working on it! www.sunroofsource.com Legacy Products Sliding Ragtops
     
  11. I have been thinking about doing this on my T when I get to the roof. This looks like I might be doable and think I will try it.
     
  12. Been working on my ragtop on the coupe. Pics are in my build thread in my signature
