HardTops! who makes them?
A few years back looked into a hard top,got side tracked,now looking again.
Have a 427 Cobra with soft top was wondering if any members know of Co's that manufacture hardtops. |

Here some fresh pictures of one of Mr.Bruce hardtops with a hatch. I drove up to Pittsburgh to pick it up. I didn't take any pictures of hatch. More to come as I am finish it.
Gel coat and fiberglass are excellent quality. He built up the rear bottom to fit ff5 cobra's. I plan to trim it down a bit more for a sleeker look since my roll bar isn't as high. I had also planned on making my own but Mr.Bruce is a fiberglass guru. You can't go wrong with either of the tops he makes. I did see the dragon snake top while there this past weekend. Very cool but no pictures. http://i664.photobucket.com/albums/v...7/e3f314da.jpg http://i664.photobucket.com/albums/v...7/98d596cb.jpg http://i664.photobucket.com/albums/v...7/fdd9141e.jpg If you have a very tall roll bar he can set you up with a "Dan Gurney" bubble if you need it. http://i664.photobucket.com/albums/v...7/39f2ff83.jpg |
Shell Valley makes them too.

Check with Tony Chiles. He makes a great looking hardtop. He is over on the other forum, but his email is: t06chiles@bellsouth.net. Tell him that Russ gave you his name.
Good Luck. |
You never mentioned what cobra you needed a hardtop for.
West Coast, Backdraft, and Superformance make their own and A.P. E. makes one for FFR. http://apeproducts.netfirms.com/index.html/hardtop.htm http://apeproducts.netfirms.com/inde...images/ht1.jpg |
Mine is a CMC car.Remember talking to someone years ago about a hardtop was then not going to be a problem.Thanks for the info.

Most hard tops will not interchange from one cobra to another and it would have been nice to have the top from the very beginning of a build as the windshield angle now set, can position the top in the wrong location.
