Thom, a fellow pelican, (widebody911) makes them, or at least he did. Do a quick search and you will find some threads showing his tops.

Cheers

What year car are we talking about? The factory makes them for the newer cars.

Here's one I had found awhile back. I have never dealt with them.

For $1600, I think it's a decent price, considering the cost to remove & replace a soft-top and rear window these days etc.

I wonder how well it seals against the windows and frame etc?

I'm looking at a full respray sometime later this year and wouldn't mind getting one of those hard tops for those cold winter months

I designed the top to use cab/targa seals around the door, OEM window seals, and a simple EDPM rubber seal around the base. If you're proficient at adjusting a targa or cab door window, you should be fine setting up the seals on this top.
