Is that a canvas top? How much was it?

[Gforcefd]

I'm trying to get a b6t and g25r tranny for it, but unless festivagt caves on the price he wants for his lot, I'm just not getting it. I wish I could get it though, it would really go towards completing my project.

I'm doing a full custom interior this winter if I don't get the b6t. If I do get one it will take most of the winter in really cold weather working on that. Not to much left to do on the outside of the car, just find a rear spoiler for it, and fix the cowl damage from when the hood flew up. I also want to do a custom headlight conversion for it, but haven't gotten into that. I'm still working on my miata cluster install, but waiting to find the wiring for it.

Yes its a canvas top, but it came with the shell I have no clue on a price it would cost new.

That canvas top was bought from a junkyard somewhere out there. They still sell that top brand new as a do it yourself kit. I almost bought that rag top off of it when I came out there to buy the B6T from Simon before he sold Pimptiva

Festiva Motorsport did have a canvas fun top, not sure if they still do or not.

Are they hard to convert over to a canvas top?

[PaulLehr]

Putting a aftermarket canvas top in is no harder than installing a sunroof just on a larger scale. I have no idea how hard a factory fun top installation would be

What wheels are those?

They are centra, I think type 17. I got them from a guy that had them on his miata, they are made in germany, and they are really hard to find in the states. I see sites all the time in europe with them though.

SWEET !!!!!!

Yup... I picked up the ragtop from someone in NY. He found it on a Festiva in a junkyard somewhere... I got it for $200 and it was installed when all the bodywork was done (shaving, air suspension, etc).

You can get a new one from places like www.streetbeatcustoms.com. As said, it's basically like installing a big sunroof.

lookin good! is that a 88 grill that you chopped the center out of?

uh... you said it was clean... but it still looks like it has black stuff all over the hood... I can't even see the orange on the hood at all :lol:
