I just happened on a site that sells "Astro Tops". Anyone familiar with these?

Astro tops
lady80,
I remember Astro Tops from back in the early '70s before glass tops were available from the factory. I think they were tinted plexiglas back then. I'm not sure if they are the same now or not.

Hi Tom, I think your right, from what I could gather they are acrylic (?) I figured at that $ they couldn't be glass.

Astro Tops
lady80 ~ hmmmmm...as I look thru my April issue of Corvette Fever...I see where Thompson Astro Tops does make T-Tops for the 68-82's...Thought they only made the Astro I for the C3's. OOOOOps !!
Says $479 per set with rebuildable exchange...but it says acrylic lens.

t-tops
Lady 80,
We have one of the astro tops on our 81. It is ok but I would not recommend it for a long trip. In heavy rains it does leak. Your t-tops are much better. Also, this astro top is harder to put in and out then the regular t-tops.
