I just got a T3 sunroof model, Florida car, body is great except for the sunroof. It was siliconed up when I got it, and as I cut the headliner open- big piles of rust fell on my head. Both drain channels are completely rusted through- although there is no rusty spots on the floor- cause the next thing I did was pull all the carpet and padding. (Whew). Anyway,I've got a great van except for the sunroof issue. The sunroof is 45"x45". I've called around to possibly find a pop-up replacement- but no such luck. I am pondering the idea of putting a poptop on it because the roof is solid, only the underskin and waterchannels are shot. 1. Does anyone have the dimensions of the 64-67 poptop (little cube one that pops straight up) handy. 2. Does anyone know where one is located, or would part with one if they have 6 or 7 in their garage ? 3. I think Sportsmobile made a cube popup thru 70 something- maybe this would work also. My other alternative is (gulp) Plexiglass... Any wisdom from the masses. Signed wet&rusty head.
