Does a Strosek Speedster hardtop need to be permanently fitted or can it be made to
 

take on and off like a Mercedes SL roadster?

the clamshell comes off first, then the top attaches. you have to make brackets for the package shelf area, and mount a stud with an adjustable height mount for the B pillar. a bit of an ordeal, and they're too heavy for one person to easily lift it off, so you wouldn't want to swap it every other day.

Thanks John, you're right, that's not something I'm going to want to mess with. I appreciate your reply.
